RRS Staff & Region Changes
RRS, like many agencies across the state, is experiencing a reduction in staff due to economic conditions. The decrease in NC PARTF revenues in the past year has led to the loss of two positions and therefore an adjustment to our service regions. We are losing two consultants, Dr. Dallis Tucker and Mr. Lindsey Dunevant. RRS, as well as park and recreation departments across the state, owes a debt of gratitude to these men for their valuable contributions and service to our profession. We thank them, will miss them as part of our team and wish them well in future endeavors.
Effective July 1, 2010 RRS will serve the state with four regional offices: Washington, Raleigh, Winston-Salem and Swannanoa. The map of our new regions and contact information for each office may be found on our Offices and Staff page.
Quality service is our ultimate goal! The staff and program sponsors are committed to continuing this tradition and providing an effective and efficient service to the parks and recreation profession. We continue to receive tremendous support from both NC State Parks and North Carolina State University and look forward to serving our profession. If you have any questions, please give us a call.
