RECOGNIZING OUR VOLUNTEERS: NANCEE LYNN, PARKS & RECREATION COMMITTEE The City of Nassau Bay is so grateful for the work of all of its Boards, Commissions and volunteer groups, and this month we are recognizing Nancee Lynn, a member of the Parks & Recreation Committee. The Parks & Recreation Committee has oversight for the development and use of the City’s parks and green spaces. Lynn is also a long-time member of the Nassau Bay Garden Club and has served two terms as Club President.
“The Parks and Recreation Committee is one of several committees that residents can volunteer for to help city officials maintain the integrity and charm of Nassau Bay,” she said. “We work hand-in-hand with the Nassau Bay Garden Club and Keep Nassau Bay Beautiful, who have done so much work to bring beauty and tranquility to Nassau Bay and maintain City gardens.” Michelle Weller, Chairman of the Parks and Recreation | Keep Nassau Bay Beautiful Committees, said she truly enjoys having Nancee on the team.
“Nancee has dedicated many years as a volunteer in Nassau Bay, and I look forward to her contributions on all the great projects we will accomplish this year,” Weller said.
