Pedro Garcia has been with the Des Plaines Park District for 14 years, and is in the role of Landscape II. Pedro was nominated for his hard work and dedication providing the District with great services across all departments.

Pedro works for the Landscape Maintenance team performing maintenance, repairs and installations in our parks athletic fields. He is a critical team member for athletic field maintenance and is instrumental in getting the ball diamonds and soccer fields ready every summer and fall.

During the winter season, Pedro is the lead in ice rink set up and snow removal operations. He can be counted upon to prevent and solve problems, and is the first to jump in when help is needed.

He is a hard worker and excellent leader with great initiative, working independently without direction. His extensive knowledge in park maintenance and problem solving benefits our community.

For all of these reasons, and so many more, we are pleased to present the Dedicated to Excellence award to Pedro Garcia. We appreciate all of Pedro's contributions to our district!
