Stan Van Velsor
ORV Campaign Coordinator
California/Nevada Office Office: 415-398-1111 Email
Stan Van Velsor joined The Wilderness Society in September of 2006. As the Off-Road Vehicle Campaign Coordinator, Stan works with a coalition of organizations and individuals determined to protect large areas in California’s national forests for the enjoyment of quiet forms of recreation and to ensure that off-road vehicles are managed in a way that reduces their impact on the natural environment.
Stan was raised on a dairy farm in Michigan and spent countless hours roaming through the fields and woods on his parent’s farm. This early connection to nature and the outdoors planted the seeds that would eventually blossom into a career in conservation and natural resource management.
After graduating from New Mexico State University with a B.S. in Wildlife Science, Stan began his career in natural resource management as a resource specialist with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. Stan left the BLM to pursue graduate work at the University of Michigan, completing his M.S. degree in 1990.
He has worked in environmental education and spent several years in conservation grant-making as Program Manager of the Pew Fellows Program in Biodiversity Conservation. Stan’s most recent work has been in the nonprofit world with the Sierra Club and now The Wilderness Society, where he has found his niche.
