    Jamie Sabbach

    President & Principal
    110% Inc.
    Salida, Colorado

    Jamie Sabbach has spent her entire adult life serving the public park and recreation profession. Afforded opportunities few will ever have, she has been a practitioner, an educator, and consultant. She speaks from a place of experience, realism, and observation.

    A self described “disappointed idealist”, she believes society should be fueled by anger and love in order to do what may not be popular, but what may be necessary.

    Jamie’s work has spanned three decades, serving communities in Illinois, Indiana, and Colorado as a park and recreation professional, teaching at Indiana University, Illinois State University, and Metro State University (CO), and working alongside professionals in 40 of the 50 US states as a trainer, consultant, and advisor, assisting them in their efforts to be responsible servants to their communities.

    Jamie has taught hundreds of professional development and training programs across North America and Europe and has had the privilege of testifying in front of the United States Congress on the critical importance of public lands and recreation.

    She has been an active member of the National Recreation and Park Association having served in a variety of leadership capacities during her career. She is a past President of the American Park and Recreation Society and in 2008 was inducted as a Fellow into the American Academy for Park and Recreation Administration.

    As she always says, “I’ve been privileged to spend my working days doing something I love. Not everyone can say that.”
