Meet our Board of Trustees

Meet Our Board of Trustees

Splash benefits from the dedication and leadership of its Board of Trustees. The three founding members of the Board each have a long history with Splash.  As they carefully build a larger Board, they are committed to establishing a governance culture that will sustain Splash for years to come. If you share their enthusiasm and commitment to the Splash mission, we invite you to contact Eva Butler.

Eva Butler

Growing up on her grandparents’ farm in southeastern Massachusetts, Eva played in the same woods that her mother had enjoyed as a child. Her reverence for its spring-fed stream full of native brook trout spawned a desire in Eva to explore the life that flourishes in clean streams and vernal pools.  

Claudia Goss

A lifelong Sacramento resident and advocate of environmental education, Claudia currently serves as a founding member of the Splash Board of Trustees. Claudia's association with Splash began through her affiliation as the Communications Manager for the Sacramento Regional County Sanitation District, one of the founding sponsors of the Splash program.

Bob Shanks

Bob was born in Queens, New York and grew up on Long Island.  He attended college at the University of Texas at Austin.  Bob received a Masters Degree in Environmental Engineering with an emphasis on Water Quality in 1975.  Bob's water quality career began with the State Water Resources Control Board, where he worked for four years, and ended with the Sacramento Regional County Sanitation District (SRCSD), where he worked for 27 years. 

Practice your ideals

Volunteering can be an exciting, growing, enjoyable experience. It is truly gratifying to serve a cause, practice one's ideals, work with people, solve problems, see benefits, and know one had a hand in them.
