There are thousands of employees that keep the City running each day. The video series, “This is What I Do,” highlights some of the unsung heroes who often work behind the scenes to serve our community.
Our most recent episode features Deshea Blake, Senior Superintendent of Parks Maintenance. His prior experience in public education included bringing play to children in the schoolyard. In his new role with the City, Deshea loves that he is connecting residents with beautiful parks and play spaces.
Deshea oversees the maintenance of many Raleigh Parks facilities, including destination parks like Pullen, Chavis, Dix, and the Raleigh Rose Garden. He and his crews work hard to ensure guests enjoy a clean and well-maintained environment. This, he says, provides opportunities for people to enjoy the outdoors and make wonderful memories.
