Ed Romijn has been volunteering for the Homesteader Community League since 1983, serving in almost every position before landing his current role as bookkeeper. Ed began as a coach for his boys’ hockey teams, first with the community, then with Braves Raiders as that organization was formed. This was when hockey games were outside and the parents pitched in to clear the ice after practices and games. During this time, Ed also served on the board of the Northeast Zone Sports Council. In over 40 years of service to our community, Ed has never missed a meeting or opportunity to help with community projects.
This is just one volunteer, the community would not be here without the many volunteers who formed and put in countless hours, to leave this legacy to the next generation. Greg and Holly Burgeoyne, Corey and Lesley Calvert, Marg Liber, Marg Spafford. All the coaches over the years and board members. Parents and Grandparents. Thank you to the next generation that is stepping up: Shannon Flurey and Lynn Maberry. If you know some history or would like to mention a Homesteader Volunteer who deserves a shout-out, let us know.
