Mohonk Consultations takes great pleasure in recognizing and celebrating the region’s unsung heroes. Our 2018 Distinguished Achievement Award honored John Lipscomb, Patrol Boat Captain and Vice President for Advocacy at Riverkeeper.
Since 2001, Captain John Lipscomb has patrolled the Hudson River for Riverkeeper. From April to December each year, Lipscomb travels thousands of nautical miles between New York Harbor and Troy, searching out and deterring polluters, monitoring tributary streams and waterfront facilities, and monitoring water pollution levels.
Special guests:
- Jon Bowermaster — Writer, filmmaker, and National Geographic adventurer
- Amanda Higgs — Fisheries Biologist, NYSDEC Hudson River Estuary Program and Cornell University
- Dan Shapley — Water Quality Program Director, Riverkeeper
Thank you to all who joined us in the Parlor to hear inspiring stories of Captain Lipscomb and his steadfast dedication to the Hudson River.
