Ronald Sheffer from California Highway Patrol (CHP) Oceanside Area 650. Stan joined the Senior Volunteer Program (SVP) in 2014 and has completed over 4,500 service hours.

Stan has served as a Field Trainer for new volunteers, ensuring they are well-equipped to conduct their road shifts safely and efficiently. Stan has also been responsible for administration, public affairs, recruitment, and SVP child safety seat program coordination. He participates in special events such as parades, DUI checkpoints, and toy distributions. Stan’s favorite part of volunteering is the combination of meaningful community service and connecting with fellow volunteers. Stan’s character is an example for his peers. He is a professional leader, an excellent manager, and a calm, level-headed person. Stan’s colleagues note that he has the ability to identify situations that may need attention and take appropriate action before there is escalation. Ron Sheffer, CHP SVP Administrator shares, “Stan always gives 100% to all the activities he volunteers for with the SVP organization. The senior volunteers and CHP Officers recognize his leadership, management, and teamwork abilities.” Congratulations, Stan, and thank you for the service to your community! |
