Due
to 2005 budget cuts in the DNR funds, Stacy became the Volunteer Program
Coordinator and Naturalist for both the Volo Bog Natural Area and the Moraine
Hills State Park. At the same time Greg Kelly, the Superintendent of Moraine
Hills State Park was asked to add to his responsibilities, the Volo Bog Natural
Area. Thus some of the above staff will be seen working hard at both sites.
Both Stacy and Greg are big supporters of our Friends organizations by
attending most of our Board meetings on their own free time, and keeping us
up-to-date on current projects and any future plans for the sites.
In 2009 Steve Ronnney left
for medical reasons, then John Arient retired, and now Maggie Ford has moved
away. The IDNR doesn’t have the budget to replace staff, so the sites are
really hurting.
