Rusty Price, Park Ranger

North Peninsula State Park

Park Ranger Rusty Price has been coming to Florida on family vacations since a young child. Originally from Ohio, he and his wife always wanted to move to Florida for the weather, palm trees, and lack of cold and snow.

Rusty has always been an outdoor person and to be able to be involved with the great staff and volunteers at the park in helping take care of this little slice of beautiful nature is a dream come true.

On a normal day you will find Rusty repairing something or helping anybody who needs assistance including visitors, staff and especially our wonderful volunteers. His favorite part of the job is meeting people from all over the world who visit the park.
