September Volunteer Of The Month - Presented By Kokatat
posted August 30, 2010
As September Volunteers of the Month, American Whitewater would like to recognize the Ohiopyle
Falls Access Committee who put in countless hours representing boater interests for access at
Ohiopyle Falls. Those individuals include:
- Barry Adams - Ohiopyle Falls Festival Coordinator
- Barry Tuscano - Former AW President
- Kenneth Gfroerer - Mountain Watershed Association
- Charlie Walbridge - AW Board Member
- Mike McCarty - Falls Fest Safety Coordinator
- Pat Norton - Falls Fest Safety Coordinator
- Peter Zurflieh - Harrisburg Attorney, Community Justice Project
- Matt Muir - Falls Fest Webmaster
Next time you see one of these committee members, please say thank you for all their hard work
and many years of effort to launch a pilot program for Ohiopyle Falls boater access. AW
staff members Kevin Colburn, National Stewardship Director, and myself worked closely with these
volunteers on a long and complicated project. This group has been the driving force behind the
Ohiopyle Over the Falls Festival too.
