Lisa Cherry

Dear Ms. Cherry,

Please accept this letter of application for a Recreation and Parks internship for the City
of Alpharetta, Georgia. Thank you for speaking with me further about the position when
I called you last week.
As a Recreation Staff Assistant at Bowling Green Parks and Recreation, I have
demonstrated competence in areas of recreation, leadership, program planning and
youth development which is important for recreational professionals in Parks and
Recreation departments such as in Alphretta, Georgia. As evidence of this, I have been
involved with programs such as after-school programs, spring, summer and fall break
camps, youth sports, and various other programs. Also my position as a Recreation Staff
Assistant I have had the opportunity to plan and implement my own program called
Drive-In with Daddy. With the experience I have gained from recreation classes, work
and volunteer experiences I would love to bring new ideas to your youth arts enrichment
programs, various special events such as the Alphretta food truck alley, Moments with
Mom, Doughnuts with Dad and also specialty camps.
Enclosed with this letter is my employment application and resume. If you need any
additional information, please feel free to contact me. I am looking forward to speaking
with you and other staff members at Alpharetta Parks and Recreation in more depth
about the position. I will call you after the NRPA conference to be sure that my
application materials have arrived. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Danielle Higgs
