VICE PRESIDENT
Blake Litz
I am currently a fourth year at the Great Lakes Maritime Academy. I am an Eagle Scout and on my free time I greatly enjoy fishing, backpacking, camping, and canoeing. If there is one thing I have learned to value from a young age, it is that the world and it's inhabitants are to be valued greatly. To me this means the preservation of it's wilderness and natural beauty.
TREASURER
Quint Long
Quint is from Bozeman, Montana, and holds a degree in Horticulture Science from Montana State University. He is currently thriving in his second year at the Great Lakes Maritime Academy. When not studying, you can find him outdoors in all sorts of places, likely hiking with his dog. Quint's alignment with the mission of the Stewards of the Great Lakes stems from his desire to keep all beautiful places pristine.
