Shelby Kline Receives Community Service Award from Daughters of the American Revolution

Greensboro, NC, February 25, 2025—Shelby Kline received the Community Service Award from the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) on February 25, 2025. Kline is the Community Outreach Supervisor for HealthTeam Advantage.

The award was presented at the Greensboro Country Club by the Rachel Caldwell Chapter of DAR. According to the DAR website, the Community Service Award is presented on local, state, and national levels to those who have contributed to their communities in an “outstanding voluntary, heroic, civil, or benevolent manner, or who have participated in or organized community activities.”

An experienced recreation therapist and senior activities director, Kline joined HealthTeam Advantage in 2021. This position allows Kline to follow her passion in recreation therapy, she says, by engaging HealthTeam Advantage members and other seniors in the Triad area in the events and activities the company sponsors.

Kline describes her work this way: “Physical therapy will help you get out of bed. Occupational therapy will teach you to get out of bed. But recreation therapy will give you a reason to get out of bed!”

Kline’s selection for the Community Service Award was not surprising to John Dunn, Director of Sales and Marketing at HealthTeam Advantage.

“Shelby has a special way of connecting with not only our members, but seniors all around the Triad,” Dunn says. “She plans hundreds of events each year, and yet she gets to know so many folks by name. She’s always trying to support our members and others in the communities we serve.”

Kline holds leadership positions in several local organizations that HealthTeam Advantage supports, such as the Triad Honor Flight,  Adult Children of Aging Parents Guilford County, the Triad Retirement Living Association, and the Greater Greensboro Senior Games. She earned a bachelor’s degree in recreation, parks, and tourism (emphasis in therapeutic recreation) and a master’s degree in recreation, parks, and tourism management (emphasis in recreation therapy) from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. She is a Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP), a Licensed Recreational Therapist (LRT) in North Carolina, a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS), and a Licensed Assisted Living Administrator.
