Lauren joined the NJDEP State Park Service in August of 2021 as Superintendent for Spruce Run Recreation Area, Voorhees State Park, and Hacklebarney State Park. Here she gained valuable experience in the areas of Parks management, program operation, and partner group coordination; skills which she will continue to grow at D&R Canal State Park.
