WSSRA Spotlight
                Annie Hart
       ITRS Professional of the Year
      WSSRA would like to congratulate Annie Hart,
      Superintendent of Safety and Operations, for
receiving the Professional of the Year Award from the
 Illinois Therapeutic Recreation Section of the Illinois
            Parks and Recreation Association.

  Annie has been making her mark at WSSRA and
   IPRA/ITRS for twelve impactful years. Annie’s
dedication, positivity and efforts to create an optimal
   environment at WSSRA is noticed by everyone.

 Annie’s problem-solving skills has allowed WSSRA
to keep providing outstanding services amid a world
 shutting down due to the Covid-19 pandemic. She
 went above and beyond this past year to ensure the
safety and well-being of WSSRA’s participants, staff
                and family members.

      Thank you, Annie, for keeping us all safe!

                                                                        Josh Sylvie
                                                                 ITRS Outstanding Participant
                                                            WSSRA would like to congratulate Josh Sylvie for
                                                            being awarded the ITRS Outstanding Participant
                                                                                Award.

                                                           Josh has remained very active with WSSRA and has
                                                           participated in both in-person and virtual programs
                                                                              this past year.

                                                             He has gained so many friendships with both
                                                           participants and staff in the time he has been with
                                                           WSSRA. His upbeat personality is very contagious
                                                             and was definitely needed that this past year!

                                                                       Congratulations Josh!
