Stephanie has served as a parent rep for Bennington’s swim team, the Whales, since 2019. With her husband volunteering as a scorekeeper and her sons swimming for many years, the team has become a central part of their involvement in the Bennington community.

Since 2019, she has served as a co-parent rep for Bennington’s swim team, the Whales, helping to organize and support the team each season. She values being involved in the community and looks forward to continuing to contribute to the neighborhood.
