June Roscoe – Vice President

June relocated to Park City in 2005 from Maryland (where she grew up) and now resides in Midway. June absolutely loves the outdoors and always wanted to live in the mountains. She says mountains makes her heart sing and speak to her inner peace to be out in nature. During her two boys’ formative years, she took them to the nature center for activities such as corn husk doll making, walking the nature trails and completing crafts. Sharing time together as a family, alongside nature, has enhanced June’s life, and she has always been drawn to historical and ecological sites to respect their origin and observe the natural beauty.

The Friends of Wasatch mission to preserve and protect Wasatch State Park aligns with June’s life journey to sustain opportunities for present and future generations. She is excited to be part of the Friends organization and contribute her time and talent as Vice President to further support others in the community. June brings strong business, office and event management experience to the Friends Board.

Jonathan Hunt — Park Manager

“I wanted to quickly introduce myself and express my excitement to be working here at Wasatch Mountain State Park. I have worked with Utah State Parks for almost 15 years with stops in Bear Lake, Scofield, Huntington, Millsite and most recently Sand Hollow State Park. Mine is a life truly blessed as I always wanted to be a park ranger. I find my peace while outdoors and enjoy seeing the smile on park visitors when they enjoy our state parks. As I begin to break in my hiking boots and trail running shoes here at Wasatch Mountain I wanted to express my desire to have a strong friends group. Together we can accomplish many tasks that will benefit the park and the park user. When people visit the park we want our guests to connect with the landscape that will lead to lifelong stewardship. Thank you for your support and I look forward to seeing you out on the trails.”

Kathy Donnell — Park Ranger/Naturalist

“Growing up, my dream job was to be a teacher and work outside. My dream came true when I started my career with Utah State Parks about 25 years ago. I started at the Rock Cliff Nature Center at Jordanelle State Park in 1998 and moved to Wasatch Mountain State Park in 2011. At Wasatch, I create and present the interpretive programs, oversee the park’s non-motorized trails, and supervise many volunteers and interns. I enjoy teaching because I love to learn about the earth and our natural resources. I enjoy helping people get outside and feel comfortable being outside.”
