LEADERSHIP TEAM

Dave has been involved with the YMCA his entire life, starting with his summers as a camper right here at Camp Lincoln.

 

Following his summers as a camper, CIT, counselor, program staff, and trip leader, Dave studied Outdoor Education and Business Administration at University of New Hampshire. Before returning to SDYMCA, Dave served in various roles with Becket-Chimney Corners YMCA and Hockomock Area YMCA, taught ESL in South Korea and Kyrgyzstan, and backpacked throughout the world. Dave and his wife Lindsey (a fellow Camp Lincoln alumni) spend their time in the outdoors trying to keep up with their sons Ashland and Cedar. Dave is proud to continue Camp Lincoln’s legacy of providing a safe, supportive environment for campers to build self-confidence and lifelong friendships
