MWR Announced Employee, Supervisor of the Quarter

Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) at NAS Patuxent River / NRC Solomons has announced Danielle Charlton as Employee of the Quarter and Sophia Gensley as Supervisor of the Quarter for the third quarter of FY2024. 

Charlton is a recreation aide at NAS Patuxent River’s Cedar Point Golf Course. According to golf course Manager John Malinowski, Charlton’s “positive attitude, engagement with customers and her energetic and strong work ethic have contributed to the success of the golf course since she joined the team” last year.  

Charlton’s willingness to assist at other MWR facilities, including the Center Stage Coffee Shop and Flight Deck Lounge, while still working at the golf course has helped to fill voids in employment and advance the mission of MWR, Malinowski said.

Gensley is the aquatic manager at NRC Solomons. Her position encompasses oversight of the pool, beach, and snack shack operations and staff including the recreational swimming program, American Red Cross instructional programs, pool parties, rental equipment and special events.

NRC Solomons Site Director Carrie Jay-Root said Gensley “has ensured that the Riverside Aquatic program continues to be recognized by our community as one that provides top-tier service delivery…She is to be commended on her exceptional customer service and the highest standard and expectation of that delivery from the Aquatic team.”
