Gina Delmont Craigo

Operations Manager

Gina Delmont Craigo is the Operations Manager for the Friends of High School Park. She joined the organization in November 2006 and handles membership, fundraising, general operations, and has coordinated Arts in the Park for the past 2 years. Gina graduated from Villanova with her Masters in Public Administration, and worked in local government and a small parenting program before taking her part-time position with FHSP so she could spend more time with her daughter. Working part time at FHSP has allowed her to put her expertise to good use, while also enabling her to get more involved in the community. Although unfamiliar with FHSP before working for the organization, she quickly became very comfortable with this vibrant group and is also learning a lot about native plants along the way.
