Employee of the Season
Michael Buchowicz
Michael Buchowicz has worked with the River Trails Park District for the past 10 years. He’s currently working with athletics under numerous positions and job titles and with a wide variety of ages (youth to adult). Mike has been the centerpiece of the Park District athletics for years and hopefully years to come. You’ve probably seen him coordinate numerous positions/leagues such as micro-baseball, floor hockey, half-pint soccer, youth basketball, indoor soccer and miscellaneous sports classes. He always makes himself available to instruct/coach. He’s an outstanding individual who gives his time not only for the participants but also for the love of the game. He also volunteers at special events whenever the park district is in need.
He’s an excellent role model for the young staff that works around him and expresses a strong sense of leadership. Multi tasking comes natural to Mike. It’s not unusual for him to coordinate a soccer league in the morning, coach a baseball team in the afternoon and then cap the night off with instructing a basketball practice. His priceless energy day in and day out rubs off on individuals, participants and coaches. Our hat goes off to Mike and his family. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to the River Trails Park District.
