Jeff Green
Chair
Jeff comes to us from a life dedicated to community service. He has 45+ years of experience working with government and community groups mostly centered around open space acquisition and land management. He has served as a municipal Stormwater Chair for a township in the NYC watershed, has saved forests, assisted communities in securing publicly accessible open space, worked as a steward with land trusts, and helped protect the Hudson River. He came to Michigan in 2015 and almost immediately became involved in the Kal-Haven Trail Heritage Project.
Sue Hodapp
Vice-Chair
Sue Hodapp, Vice Chair, is a MSU Extension Certified Conservation Steward who leads the Friend’s Kal-Haven Trail Wildflower Restoration Project. She is also a local historian whose valued assistance helped make the DNR’s Kal-Haven Heritage Trail project the success that it is. She has served on the Friend’s board since 2011, except for a 2 year absence where she focused on research for the Heritage project.
