Meet a Board Member – Tom Pelletier
Meet a Board Member – Tom Pelletier
This month of thankfulness would not be complete without a shoutout to one of our most involved and dedicated volunteers. Tom Pelletier is not only our Board Chair, he also co-chairs the Marketing, Building and Grounds, and Fund Development committees. He spends countless hours supervising building construction, repairing parts of the lodge, writing blogs and grants, working on the website, and guiding our fundraising.
Tom has always been interested in nature and shares his fascination through the website ”Ask a Naturalist,” where curious naturalists can ask questions and Tom will find the answer if he does not already know it himself. Learning about fascinating phenomena in nature is his life-long passion. His expertise in writing and biology has led him on a career path of writing for many non-profit organizations, including creating fundraising campaigns for over 250 organizations. Tom has also been an integral part of CEED’s funding, whether seeking from outside sources or funding projects himself.
If you have attended any of our festivals or events, you most likely ran into Tom. He is involved in all levels of what we do and often brings his family and friends to share the exciting happenings at CEED. Tom has helped spearhead the efforts of repairing the roof on our historic second empire structure and has been instrumental in arranging the installation of our fire safety system, which just began this month.
And right now, Tom has agreed to match any gifts made to our Giving Tuesday campaign. And he wants you to take him up on it!
Both CEED and the surrounding community are thankful that Tom is involved.
