Congratulations to Anna Torres, clerical staff member for Milwaukee Recreation and the Milwaukee City Conference, on her upcoming retirement!
Anna began her career with Milwaukee Public Schools in 1982, providing clerical support in the MPS departments of Administrative Services and Student Services. She joined Milwaukee Recreation in 1985, and one of her first responsibilities was managing an ink printing press!
Anna later became the front counter receptionist for our administration offices and moved to her current position as secretary for Interscholastic Athletics and Academics in 1997.
Anna is always cheerful when juggling her many responsibilities, including processing payroll, communicating with athletic directors, assisting with Spanish translations, and answering every type of question related to our interscholastic sports, chess, debate, and forensics programs.
“My time at Milwaukee Recreation has been very fulfilling,” Torres said. “I’ve enjoyed working with our staff, building friendships, and helping our customers. Sometimes, I bump into people I’ve helped in the community - and that’s always a good feeling! Milwaukee Recreation has evolved a lot over the last 40-plus years, and I am thankful to be a part of it. “
We are grateful for Anna’s numerous contributions to the success of our department. Best wishes in retirement!
