Darke County Parks
DCP Volunteer in the Spotlight
Each quarter, the Darke County Parks recognizes one of their
exceptional volunteers. This volunteer gets a spot in the quarterly
newsletter, as well as a plaque on the Volunteer Hall of Fame board
which can be viewed at the Shawnee Prairie Preserve Nature Center.
This season’s volunteer in the spotlight goes to James Normile, a
senior at Greenville High School with a passion for animals and the
outdoors. James will soon be moving on to major in Zoology at Miami
University, but in the meantime he has been building volunteer
experience with Darke County Parks’ animal ambassadors at Shawnee
Prairie Nature Center. His favorite thing about volunteering with the
animals is, “watching the animals follow their instincts.”
When he is not volunteering, James enjoys adventuring with his scout
group and repairing old cars. James would love to see an expansion to
animal care volunteer opportunities as well as more virtual programming
in the future. Everyone at the Darke County Parks would like to say
“Thank you, James!”
