PETE
VAN ROYEN

Meet Education Interpreter, Pete Van Royen.


Pete Van Royen has been volunteering in ECHO's Education Department for the past fifteen years! He began volunteering in 1995, two years after he retired from GE, and is one of a handful of original volunteers who was part of the Lake Champlain Basin Science Center which then transformed into ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center at the Leahy Center for Lake Champlain.

Pete is an avid traveler, but he always finds time for ECHO and his flexible schedule and ability to adapt to fit the needs of the Education Department make him an invaluable volunteer. His life travels, work at GE and fifteen years of “on the job training” while at ECHO make it possible for him to fill in wherever he is needed and share his wealth of knowledge with our visitors.

Pete has a relaxed and gentle manner about him that makes him very approachable; therefore, able to share ECHO’s mission and information with a variety of visitors.

 

For more information on volunteering at ECHO, please contact Amanda Van Vranken,
Volunteer Coordinator at 802.864.1848 ext. 116 or volunteer@echovermont.org.
