Draper, Sheehan, Gleason join BFR staff this summer
Several new faces are greeting customers at BFR this summer.
Derek Draper was hired in mid-May as the Front Office Manager. Draper is a recent graduate from the University of Findlay Sport and Event Management program. Not only does Derek bring a professional and friendly presence to the front desk, he also brings his collegiate baseball experience to the facility. A Riverdale High School graduate, Draper played four years on the Oiler Baseball Team. The front office manager oversees customer service at the facility, as well as special events and inside advertising.
Assisting in the Fitness Center for the summer are Michael Sheehan and Levi Gleason. Sheehan completed his personal training certification in late May and is available for program design and personal training sessions at BFR. Sheehan is a pre-med major at The Ohio State University-Columbus and the son of Mike and Sue Sheehan. Michael works on Monday and Wednesday nights as well as by appointment in the daytime.
Levi Gleason will be completing his bachelors degree in May 2015 from Anderson University. Gleason is available to work with athletes preparing for fall seasons; his specialty is basketball.
The new staff members join Keri McCoy and Amy Byers on the BFR training team.
