This column, LBWA--Leadership By Wandering Around--is focused on gathering input from PRB readers in the maintenance field, those battling in the trenches to find ways to do more with less. How are you doing something successfully that might help others? Or, what problems are you facing that we can pose to your counterparts? Each month, we will feature one or more departments somewhere in the world with problems, ideas, and solutions common to the field. Do you have ideas? Contact the editor or me to be part of the solution.

PRB recognizes that maintenance is one of the primary, and arguably, one of the most important tasks that parks and rec professionals perform. In fact, it is so important we want to focus the LBWA column on it and even reinforce the name of the column to prove it!

Let me explain why this new focus is important.
