MCF is pleased to honor the late Jim Truncer for his integral work to spearhead the formation of our organization and advance its mission. During his 58-year career as Secretary Director of the Monmouth County Park System (MCPS), Jim led its growth from 350 acres to over 18,000. In 1994 he achieved the nation’s first accreditation from the Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA), a level of excellence still proudly held by MCPS today. We commend Jim’s dedication to preserving green space and thank him for being an MCF ex-officio board member and cherished partner during his robust life of 86 years. MCF is honored to establish the Jim Truncer Memorial Fund in his memory to carry on his meaningful legacy of preserving green space and creating parks for the benefit of the people.
