Paul Willey


Paul has worked for the environment for over 30 years and believes that sharing the outdoors is a wonderful thing to do. Paul has worked closely with Nature Sacred through our partnership with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) Hie has many responsibilities at CBF, including serving as the captain/manager of three education programs: Fox Island, Smith Island, and the Arthur Sherwood Program, teaching thousands of students and hundreds of teachers during his time as an educator.

For Paul, walk along a quiet shoreline is the best ever and to find a bench to sit and reflect is even better.

Paul was an integral part of creating Sacred Places with our signature bench, and even continues to help build them to be installed in new sites!
