Terry Hanover, Board of Directors
Terry is a woodworker from New Troy in Weesaw Township Michigan. Although his work involves cutting down trees, he also has great interest in preserving green space. Terry graduated from Western Michigan University with a bachelor’s degree in Industrial Arts. Before devoting his life to woodworking, he taught for three years. Right now, Terry is chairperson of the recreation committee of Weesaw Township and serves as President for the Friends of New Troy. His past-times influenced his interests in these organizations including: backpacking, hiking, tennis, and bird watching. Recently, Terry has become involved with Chikaming Open Lands because of the important efforts being done by COL to preserve green space and create filtering strips for the water. For Terry, this is an important legacy to leave for future generations.
