INTRODUCING
Welcome, Kira!
Kira Robinson has joined our team as a Youth Program Coordinator. Along with our Activity Coordinators Laura Nesse and Celine Mauger, Kira will be creating and supervising fun activities for kids and teens in our community, such as our afterschool program every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Here is a little more about Kira, in her own words:

"My name is Kira Robinson. I'm ecstatic about the new possibilities that come with my position at Blaine-Birch Bay Park and Recreation. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my horse Frankie. We enjoy trail riding in the summer and occasionally shows like the fair! When I'm not with Frankie, I love movies and going to Birch Bay."
