Jeff Rock, Director of Field Services-Announces his Retirement

     Jeff started his career with the Occoneechee Council in Raleigh, N. C., as a District Executive on Sept 22, 1986.  He later served as Field Director and Director of Field Service for that same Council.  He was promoted to Scout Executive in 2005 of the Shawnee Trails Council in Owensboro, Kentucky where he served for seven years until he joined the staff of the Gulf Ridge Council in 2012 as a Field Director.  In 2014, Jeff became the Director of Field Service for the Gulf Ridge Council and continued in the position after the merger with the West Central Florida Council created the Greater Tampa Bay Area Council.  His career has made an impact on countless volunteers and scouts. His commitment to the scout law and oath are unsurpassed. Jeff lives his daily life with each of these in mind. After 33 years of working with the Boy Scouts of America, he has decided to spend more time with his wife and family and possibly be a BSA volunteer.

     A search is underway for his replacement, until this person is identified, please contact Angelique Saffore at Angelique.saffore@scouting.org.

     The entire Greater Tampa Bay Area Council wishes Jeff and his family the best in retirement, we will greatly miss you.  Congratulations can be sent to Jeff at jeff.rock086@gmail.com.
