Volunteer Spotlight! - Lindsey Crews, active volunteer and board member.

Lindsey Crews began her association with John Pennekamp in 2015 as a ranger. She loves the park so much, that she continues to be an active volunteer even after leaving for a new job in another agency.

Her best park memory is of the first education program she put on at the park: Sharks-Fact or Fiction? “It was Christmas Day and we had 85 people. It was awesome!”

For a favorite spot, Lindsey loves the “cathedral” – an area in the kayak trails where the mangrove tops arch over and meet overhead to form a church like ceiling.

When dining out in Key Largo, Lindsey prefers Evelyn’s, a local family run place.

Lindsey recently received a Life Saver Award when she swam out to a boat and resuscitated an unconscious park guest .
