Rick Cantu, of Emerald Acres Cooperative, one of 119 resident-owned manufactured home communities in New Hampshire, was honored by ROC-NH’s (resident-owned communities-New Hampshire) Co-ops Celebrating Community for his outstanding volunteer work in his community, receiving the Above and Beyond award.

He was nominated by his neighbors, one of whom wrote: “Rick is a certified Well Operator that volunteers his time to help manage our Co-Op’s water system. He ensures the Co-Op is complaint by taking the time to handle all required paperwork for the state as well as personally going door to door to hand out water compliance paperwork.”

As fosters informs MHProNews, Emerald Acres in Barrington, NH converted to resident ownership in 2006. ROC-NHs’ Above and Beyond Award honors residents of New Hampshire’s manufactured home co-operatives who go above and beyond in assisting the operations of their communities. ##
