Meet the VOLUNTEERS

 All of our Board Members and Advisors are also Instructors. 

 Every board member and instructor must first successfully complete a Vulnerable Sector check, before partaking in any JAC activities. 

Board Members

Beaumont, Ian

Ian has been an avid backcountry camper for the last 20 years. Ian is all about the trees, and proper fire starting. Ian grew up owning a wood lot and heated with wood, so knowing his trees and what burns well lent well to his camping adventures. 

Beaumont, Skye

Skye has been an avid backcountry camper for the last 20 years. Her passion is plants, animals and especially insects, and the roles they play in nature. Skye grew up gardening which lead to her love of plants and interest in foraging and herbalism.
