Lori Jean Kinsey, Executive Director set to retire and next steps:

For more than four decades, Tin Mountain Conservation Center has been fortunate to benefit from the dedication, vision, and leadership of one remarkable individual. Lori Kinsey joined Tin Mountain in 1984 and has served the organization in numerous roles, including Teacher/Naturalist, Education and Camp Director, and ultimately Executive Director since 2017.  Throughout her 42 years of service, Lori has embodied the mission and values of Tin Mountain Conservation Center. Her passion for environmental education, commitment to conservation, and unwavering belief in the power of connecting people with nature have shaped generations of students, families, staff, and community members. 

Yet, as nature continually reminds us, change is a vital part of every season. Lori has decided that it is now her season to retire and so she intends to do so later this year.

Tin Mountain Conservation Center is searching for the ideal candidate that will compliment Lori’s vision for the future and honor the collective mission of the center, while bringing new ideas and exciting possibilities to the programming and events that have been cultivated successfully through the years.  The Board of Trustees is looking for a special person who holds a deep appreciation for the natural world that is treasured here.  As Lori often reminds us, “Nature - there is no better classroom.”
