EXECUTIVE BOARD AND TRUSTEES 2025-2026
Sarah Voight Pritchard
President
-
Sarah Pritchard is a Vermont native currently residing on Lake Dunmore full-time with her husband (Austin Pritchard) and Yellow Lab (Levon Helm Pritchard). Sarah's family have been members of the Lake Dunmore community for generations. She spent every summer with her maternal grandparents, Mary Jane Churchill Wing and Howard "Pete" Wing, until her parents bought the family property next door in the 90s. She has been a part of the milfoil eradication effort since she could float and snorkel. It has been said that the Lake raised her and her cousins.
Professionally, Sarah is a principal owner of Plan Integrity Partners, LLC, a Third Party Administration firm providing Retirement Plan design and consulting services to businesses across the country. She works from her home on Indian Trail. Her focus in the business is on collaborating with financial advisors and CPAs to customize retirement plan programs for local and national businesses of all sizes.
In her spare time (when she can find it!) you will find her puttering around the garden, tinkering with her boat, floating in the lake, or chasing her nieces and (soon-to-be) nephew around the neighborhood. She is passionate about maintaining the quality of life on the lake for residents and visitors alike. Lake Dunmore is an incredibly special place to Sarah and her family. She is eager for the opportunity to give back.
Louis Miron
First Vice President
-
Louis has been enjoying Lake Dunmore since the mid-1960s and is one of several Camp Dunmore alumni on Lake Dunmore and Fern Lake. When he cannot be at the lake, it’s likely because he’s practicing law in NJ.
Louis is currently serving as Aquatic Invasive Species Committee Chair.
Sean Sweeney
Second Vice President
-
Thank you for the opportunity to serve as trustee of the LDFLA board.
Sean's family first came to Lake Dunmore in 1947 when his father was part of a group of Philadelphians who started a summer sports camp called Camp Brebeauf. Sean's first year attending the camp was in 1964 and that is when his family first bought a property on Lake Dunmore . His family currently has 2 year round properties on the lake. Sean's wife, Caroline and their three daughters enjoy all water activities including water-skiing, sailing, SUP, and kayaking. They have participated in the Vermont Sun Triathlon for the past 25 years, with the hopes of someday getting in Jeff Schumann’s league!
Sean was a CEO of Philadelphia Insurance Companies and spent 40 plus years in the commercial property casualty insurance industry and has an MBA from Saint Joseph’s University.
Sean has been a member of the LDFLA Water Quality Committee for the last 2 years. He currently serves as the Chair of the LDFLA Social Committee and is also a member of the Finance Committee.
Doug Perkins
Secretary
-
Doug is a fourth generation Vermonter who graduated from Burlington High School many moons ago. After getting his BA from Dartmouth College, he joined the U.S. Coast Guard, where he spent 22 years as a surface operations officer in assignments around the world. Along the way, he qualified as a ship salvage diving officer, obtained a private pilot's license with instrument and multi-engine ratings, was awarded a Masters Degree in Public Administration from Northeastern University, and rose to the rank of Commander. After retiring from the Coast Guard in the mid-90's, Doug worked for 15 years as a project manager and program analyst for a succession of consulting firms in the Washington, DC area. When the siren call of Vermont simply became too overwhelming, Doug left the DC rat race behind... buying vacant property on Fern Lake where he and Chree, his wife of over 50 years, spent eight years designing and building their retirement dream home. The Perkins have been year-round residents since 2016 ... and hopefully for many decades to come
Jaap Ketting
Treasurer
-
Jaap’s love of Lake Dunmore is life-long. Starting in the 1950s, he came with his parents as guests to a camp belonging to good friends and neighbors from Bedford Hills, New York. In 1975, he purchased the camp on what was then Road X (now Lakeview Drive) from his parents’ neighbors. The latest chapter has been Jaap and his wife Regina tearing down the nearly 100-year-old seasonal camp in 2020 and building a modern residence that they can now enjoy in all seasons. When at the Lake, Jaap’s favorite activities include sailing his Scorpion sailboat, walking/hiking, exploring local restaurants, and just drinking in the view from our lake deck.
Jaap serves on the Investment Advisory Committee of the LDFLA. He is also on the Board of the Bedford Hills (NY) Historical Museum.
When not at the lake, Jaap lives with Regina, their son, Conrad, their collie, Summer and their two cats, Emma and Bella, in Princeton, New Jersey.
Jaap has been retired for over 5 years. His career was in corporate finance in the areas of financial planning and analysis, strategic planning, and mergers and acquisitions.
Jaap graduated from Amherst College in 1973; he also has an MBA in Finance from the Boston University Graduate School of Management.
Rich Schneider
Trustee
-
Rich and Jaime Schneider have owned property on Lake Dunmore since 2010, but have now become full time residents since Rich’s retirement as the Norwich University President in May 2020. After 28 years leading Norwich they were ready for a change of pace, and found it here in Leicester on the lake!!
A graduate of the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Marine Engineering, Rich spent 8 years on active duty and then 22 years as a Coast Guard Reservist. He retired from the Coast Guard with the rank of Rear Admiral. He holds a Masters Degree from Wesleyan University, and a Doctorate in finance and public policy from the University of Delaware. He is a Trustee of the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, a Trustee of the National Coast Guard Museum Foundation, and helped as a volunteer with the LDFLA Lakes Alive fundraising campaign. Much of his retirement time, however, has been spent helping lead all Vermont Colleges’ response to the COVID 19 pandemic. He hopes he is working himself, and all of us, out of that job!!!

Adam Fasoli
Trustee
-
Adam was born and raised in Bradenton, FL on the Gulf Coast, but fell in love with Vermont while attending Middlebury College, class of 2004. He then moved to Boston and completed his dental doctorate at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in 2010. After graduation, he was fortunate to be able to join Middlebury Dental Group, which he now co-owns. He joined the lake community in 2015 after purchasing his home, located off of Indian Trail, and has been an association member ever since.
In addition to his busy dental practice, Adam serves as the dental director for the Open Door Clinic, a free dental clinic for migrant farm workers and underinsured Vermonters. He also just completed nine years on the Board of Trustees for Northeast Delta Dental, the region’s largest dental insurance company. During his time on the Delta Board, he served as the Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee and the Professional Relations Committee. He is still very involved with Middlebury College and mentors students interested in careers in dentistry. He is also an adjunct faculty member for the University of New England College of Dental Medicine in Portland, Maine.
You will most likely see Adam in the water, either splashing with his twin girls or just sneaking out of the office at lunch for a quick swim. If it is chilly, count on him being outside with his wife, Allison, who is also a Middlebury class of 2004 graduate, enjoying a glass of wine or a cocktail and taking too many pictures of the sunset.

Suzie Crews

Suzie and her husband, Bob, purchased their camp on Kelsey Lane in 2011 while their daughters were attending Middlebury College. The camp quickly became a respite and gathering place for their friends, family, and the neighborhood community.

Suzie spends her time on the lake swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, boating and hiking and is committed to safeguarding our precious resource. When not at the lake, she can be found playing tennis, golfing, and visiting family in Burlington. She and Bob currently spend their winters in Florida where they play competitive tennis and golf.
Suzie moved to the Burlington, VT area from Connecticut in 1987 after working in employee benefits for Aetna, and Cigna.
