RCPT Alumni Ben Owen and Joel Neville share a special accomplishment!

Congratulations to Ben Owen who completed his Master Hiker designation at Machicomoco State Park!

Here is what was said about his journey from Chief Ranger of Visitor Experience, Joel Neville:

"Ben began his Trail Quest journey in 2020. His favorite park is Staunton River State Park, where he served as an AmeriCorps intern in the Visitor Center, leading interpretive programs. His biggest challenge was finding time to schedule visits to every park, but in the end, he says it was an incredible way to explore the entire state of Virginia."

Thank you for sharing your journey and for being part of the Trail Quest and Virginia State Park family!
