East Haven Mountain, Inc. Board of Directors
Bryan Wiegers, EHMI Board Chairman
Bryan lives in Northbridge, Mass with his wife Sue. They have two daughters in their 20s who still live in the area. He loves being in the outdoors with people, and can often be found riding his bike through the trails or walking up a mountain. God's Creation and Scripture continue to open his eyes to the Grace and Mercy of Jesus Christ, and he is grateful for the friendships in his life that help support this. Bryan first started going to The Cabin over 20 years ago, and is thankful that its founder, Greg Gordon, has trusted him to carry the mission of The Cabin forward. His experiences as an avid outdoorsman, environmental engineer, sales person and pastor have provided a foundation for the activities of The Cabin, but he has found the real impact of The Cabin happens when people come together with their different abilities to make things happen and take next steps.

Kent Koeman, EHMI Board Member
Kent’s experience with The Cabin started over 15 years ago through his life-long friendship with Bryan Wiegers and his involvement at New England Chapel in Franklin, MA. He especially remembers the early days when he ventured out to do a couple of solo trips, sometimes ascending East Haven Mountain at night. Originally from Northwest Washington State, Kent has always loved outdoor activities like hiking, backbacking and skiing. Kent enjoys getting a group of hard-working people together to accomplish maintenance tasks like cutting wood, clearing trails, or hauling stuff up to the Cabin for guests to enjoy. Kent loves nothing more than a hard day’s work at The Cabin followed by sitting on the deck together with some good food and conversation. Kent and his wife Jodi have three grown children who've all had numerous Cabin experiences over the years. Kent works as a business development professional for a national company that provides calibration services for industry.

Kevin Kempskie, EHMI Board Member
The husband of a pastor with two teenage children, Kevin's love for God and his family is only rivaled by his passion for getting outside. An experience on a Cabin trip more than 10 years ago left an indelible imprint on his life, which led him several months later to join AA and find a new life in sobriety. Kevin is an active member in his church in Franklin, MA, in which he serves as a volunteer men's ministry leader. He's traveled the world for work and fun to the Far East, Israel and all throughout Europe and the U.S. Kevin works as a busy communications professional for a scientific technology company and helps on the EHMI Board as secretary and Cabin web site hack. Depending on the season you can usually find Kevin skiing, snowmobiling, fishing or riding his dirt bike throughout the (legal) trails of New England.
