Steve Maine
BOARD PRESIDENT
PROGRAM DIRECTOR

Chief became involved in camp in 2006 . He had been a volunteer fire chief at a rural fire department in North Bend and while going through the email, came across an email, asking if they had any medics that would like to come help at camp. That night his wife came home from her job at the hospital and started telling him about this camp she wanted to go work at. So they signed up together, and the rest is history!
