Mount Olive’s Jill Daggon was sworn in as Vice President of the New Jersey Recreation and Parks Association in early June.
The mission of the New Jersey Recreation and Park Association is to unite the public and professional interests in park, recreation and conservation throughout the State of New Jersey.
Since June 9, 1928, the New Jersey Recreation and Parks Association (NJRPA) has played a significant role in shaping parks, recreation, and conservation professionals in the great Garden State. NJRPA’s role has been to support the shared interest of individuals and communities. The association remains steadfast to drive positive outcomes for its members and the public served.
NJRPA has achieved much in its 94 years. It has grown from 100 members to now having 690 professionals across the state. There are 200 volunteers that are passionate about advancing the professional association. There are seven districts representing the entire state. Members build their network through the districts, at live and virtual educational events, and at the Annual Conference in March.
