I just wanted to give back to our town and three great Summits residents, Paul Lameo, Chris Zotti and Patrick Darcy encouraged my participation on the board. Every year has proven better and stronger! My wife (Sarah) and I have three children that have all participated in various Summit sports clubs and we are also participates in the great events that the PAL supports in the town (National Night Out, Easter Egg Hunt, Fishing Derby and so many more).
My family has lived in Summit for close to 15 years. We have availed ourselves of many PAL-sponsored events and love the sense of community that this fosters. Between community events that are open to all children and sponsoring of the DARE program and college scholarships, this is a great organization of which I am proud to be a part!
I joined the PAL to volunteer and give back to the community I’ve lived in since 2003. I have seen first hand the many contributions the PAL has made to our Summit community. Being a member gives me the opportunity to play an active role in helping the PAL continue to make a positive impact for all who live in our town.
The Summit PAL has a rich history of enabling great community programs that create and foster pride and spirit in the town of Summit. I joined the Summit PAL to ensure that these programs and events continue for years to come and that we also continue our efforts with both D.A.R.E and Summit High School scholarships.
I joined the Summit PAL to volunteer and give back to our community. My family moved into Summit in 2017 and I was looking for a great way to give back. Raising a young family in Summit has given me the opportunity to experience firsthand what PAL does for our town. Being a member gives me the ability to extend the PAL's reach to the newer families in town.
Joining the PAL offers the possibility of paying it forward and be part of a tradition and a group of individuals who give their time and effort to give back to their police department, athletic program, and community.
Being a part of the PAL provides me the opportunity to give something back to the Summit community that has been so good to me and my family for the past 10 years. I joined the board to work in conjunction with the police department to offer quality youth programs and fun events to everyone in Summit. The PAL is an incredible organization that serves Summit in so many ways and truly enhances an already amazing city - I look forward to serving and continuing this tradition.
Our family moved back to the United States, after living in London for eleven years, in 2019 just ahead of the pandemic. During this time, we almost moved to Texas but our son insisted that we stay here because he made such great friends playing football. This saved us during lockdowns and because of that we have grown to love this tight knit community. Now on the other side of all this, I needed a way to become a bigger part of the community and to give back. The Summit PAL has provided me with this opportunity and I am happy to be a part of the organization.
I have attended the Summit PAL events with my kids and wanted the opportunity to give back to the town. Excited to work with such a dedicated group of people!!
