Jean Ann Linney

Jean Ann Linney has been a front desk volunteer at Riverbend Park’s Visitor Center for two years, working regularly, even through the holidays. She manages the sales at the gift shop, answers calls, provides visitors with guidance and support, and often takes on additional tasks while on duty. She provides excellent customer service to visitors and outstanding support to park staff.

Linney has gone above and beyond her duties at the front desk by assisting the park’s Visitor Services manager with inventory and completing a Front Desk Handbook, updating important information, resources, and training tools for staff and volunteers.

The handbook will be used for years to come to help with training and to help keep everyone on the same page. Linney has also provided staff support at the Bluebell Festival and the Native

American Festivals by attending to visitors at the gate. The commitment, dedication and care she exhibits during her volunteer shifts never goes unnoticed.
