"I love the outdoors and I love helping people. The NCSP has been the perfect venue for just that. I’ve also learned a lot about rescue, paddling, and leadership. All while making some great friends along the way!"

"I first learned of NCSP as a participant on the Delaware River Sojourn." Nature has always been my centering place and being of service to people around me has been a considerable part of who I am. Holding an NCSP leadership position and serving in nature checks off two important aspects of what feeds me. To do it on the beautiful Upper Delaware River, is simply icing on the cake. Come join us!"

As a former innkeeper, I’ve always loved welcoming people, fostering community, and making sure everyone has a fantastic—and safe—experience. Being part of NCSP allows me to bring that same passion to the river, connecting with paddlers, supporting our mission, and growing my own skills along the way. Every paddle is an adventure, and I’m excited to be on this journey with such an incredible team!"

"As the newly elected Treasurer for the NCSP, I am excited to bring my experience as a retired registered nurse and my deep appreciation for the river and outdoor adventures to this important role.
Having lived in the area where our patrols operate, I’ve witnessed firsthand the vital role NCSP plays in ensuring the safety and well-being of those enjoying the water. I look forward to collaborating with our dedicated leadership team to raise awareness of our mission and expand the public’s understanding of the life-saving work we do. Together, we strive to make our rivers safer for everyone."
