Three Elected to Join LGLC Board of Directors

Bolton Landing, NY – The Lake George Land Conservancy (LGLC) is pleased to announce the addition of Paul Krump, Peg Olsen, and Lisa Stromberg to its Board of Directors.

LGLC Board President Paul Bell said, “I’m grateful that Paul, Peg, and Lisa have agreed to join the LGLC Board of Directors. Each have unique experience and expertise that will be immensely valuable to the LGLC. We’re looking forward to their service and counsel.”

Paul Krump was raised in North Dakota in a family that loved to camp, boat, hunt, and fish. He and his wife Anne met in college in Minnesota, and have always loved the magic of freshwater lakes and woods. They have visited Lake George for years, and in 2023 completed construction of their home in Lake George, where they look forward to sharing many memories with their children and grandchildren.

Krump retired in 2023 following a distinguished 40+ year career with Chubb Corporation, where he served in numerous roles including Chief Operating Officer, and most recently as Vice Chairman of Chubb, Ltd. His significant board experience includes serving nine years as a trustee of Saint John’s University, and as a current board member of Malta Human Services Foundation and Brown & Brown.

Lisa Stromberg, along with her family, has shared a life-long love of Lake George. She began visiting Lake George as a young child, enjoying various locations around the lake from Pilot Knob to Hague, and Hemlock Point. She and her husband Bill built a home in Northwest Bay, and are particularly excited to introduce the lake to the next generation: their grandchildren. The Strombergs have supported the LGLC since 2008, and were inducted into the LGLC’s Apperson Society in 2019 in recognition of their leadership, stewardship and philanthropy in the Indian Brook-Northwest Bay Conservation Initiative.

Stromberg’s background is in education. She has supported and fostered the transformational power of education through her volunteer board work in a variety of roles, and most recently as the Chair of the Board of Trustees at Goucher College, her alma mater, where she continues to serve as a trustee. When not at Lake George, Stromberg resides in Lutherville, Maryland.

Peg Olsen is returning to the board, having served from 1989 to 2004, including as treasurer from 1990 – 1996, and again from 2018 to 2023. She served as an advisory board member from 2012 to 2017. Olsen has multigenerational ties to Lake George and still lives in her family home at the foot of Anthony’s Nose in Glenburnie. Her time hiking and exploring the mountains of Lake George is what inspired her career in conservation, and she is widely respected for her keen knowledge of the lake and Adirondacks. She was inducted into the LGLC’s Apperson Society in August 2025.

Olsen is the Adirondack Director of The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and she co-leads New York’s Indigenous Partnerships Program. She returned to TNC in 2017 after 13 years with the National Audubon Society where she served in a variety of positions including Chief Conservation Officer and VP of the Atlantic Flyway. In her first tenure with TNC, she served as Deputy Director of the Asia Pacific Region for four years where she had oversight of seven country programs and established the first country program in Australia. She also served for ten years as Director of the Eastern New York Chapter.
