Mr. Don Swingler joined the Carobell Board of Directors in 2009. He retired in December 2016 after 17 years as a Financial Advisor with Marine Federal Credit Union and his own financial business (combined). A native of Pennsylvania, he grew up in Chambersburg, attended Shippensburg State College, then enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in August 1971. He served in Operations Desert Shield & Desert Storm and traveled to many countries throughout the globe. In August 2000, Mr. Swingler retired as Executive Officer, PA School, Camp Johnson. During his travels to foreign countries, Mr. Swingler could not help but see a lack of quality facilities available to residents with special needs. Seeing and learning the Carobell story, inspired Don to pick up the banner and move forward for their cause.
