Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my interest in the Recreation Manager position. With 4 years of experience working with senior citizens, I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to your team.

In my most recent role as Recreation Manager at Sunnybank Seniors Centre, I oversaw a team of 3 support staff and developed tailored recreation programs for 70 members. Drawing on my background in social work and creative arts therapy, I focused on creating activities that promoted cognitive and physical stimulation, as well as social interaction.

My approach is rooted in learner-centered pedagogy and evidence-based practices. I have a track record of building strong relationships with activity providers to enhance the services offered to clients. For example, I successfully organized weekly dance, yoga, and bowling classes led by external instructors at the center.

In addition to my Graduate Diploma in Expressive Therapies and Bachelor of Fine Arts, I hold certifications in social work and creative arts therapy-related areas. I have attached my resume for your review and look forward to discussing how my skills and experiences align with the needs of your organization.

Thank you for considering my application. I am eager to learn more about the next steps in the hiring process.

Sincerely,

Jackie Kropacek
