New Board of Directors for Deer Park Volunteer Ambulance

Mike Bell

DPVA would like to welcome our two new Board of Director members: Mike Bell and Dave Campanella.


Dave Campanella

Mike fills the position designated for a community member, while Dave fills an organizational member’s role. Mike brings experience from his work with hospitals and rural clinics. He has a background in accounting and understands the challenges of the rural EMS system. Dave brings extensive business and fundraising experience to the Board. Dave is a volunteer with DPVA. He is an EMT, and is advancing toward obtaining his Advanced EMT certificate. We are excited to have both of them on our Board and appreciate their dedication to our communities through their volunteering to fill these non-compensated positions.

DPVA would also like to thank the existing members, Doug Presta and Mark Cochran, for their services on the Board of Directors.
