FORT BUCHANAN, PUERTO RICO- With over 24 years of experience in the recreation and tourism administration industry, Daniel E. Cain, a native of Illinois, recently became the new Director of the Fort Buchanan's Directorate of Family, Morale, Recreation and Welfare (FMWR).
"I am very excited to have this opportunity to do the job I've spent 25 years learning the skills and knowledge to perform well. It's even better because this role offers the ultimate work-life balance," said Cain
Cain arrives with big plans and announces two major initiatives set to take place during the year.
"First, the Roberto Clemente gym annex now operates 24/7, offering a convenient workout space for shift workers and night owls who prefer exercising late at night or early in the morning. Second, FMWR is organizing a celebrity softball event. The team is still refining the concept and operational details." said Cain.
