On-Board Educators
On-board Educators work for FORE on a part-time, seasonal basis.  Many return each year and are continually enhancing our programs by adding creative revisions to our on-board curriculum.  Our On-board Educators are tremendously talented in their ability to engage young and old minds in exploring the Ohio River!
