Background

About Dorothy Morrison

I’m an energetic youth recreation coordinator, team leader, and events manager. I offer 10+ years of dynamic experience planning, organizing, and supervising programs in after-school, camp, and community settings. My passion for youth recreation began with 4-H camp, first as a participant, then a counselor-in-training, and later as a youth development associate. Working with kids sparked a light within me and motivated me to pursue opportunities to create safe, fun, and interactive programs for children and teens. I’ve successfully run programs, operations, and marketing initiatives for the Girl Scouts of America, YMCA, 4-H Camps, Alpha-BEST Education, SkyZone, and ZavaZone. Previous managers will tell you that I take the initiative, inspire creative thinking, and work collaboratively to solve problems. Some of my career highlights include: Hosting 20+ events a day at SkyZone while supervising teams of up to 25 Running summer camp for 175 K-5 students as a Site Director for AlphaBEST Education Delivering teen and adult career programs for 300+ residents in a multi-purpose housing community Driving membership growth at a newly-opened ZavaZone location during the height of COVID-19 Teaching hundreds of K-8 and high school students as a substitute teacher I’m also a certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor and love supporting people in their quest to live healthier lives. I’m excited to apply my success in recreation management to take on a new professional challenge.
