Darren Carroll
About Darren
I am a 20 year township resident dedicated to preserving our culture and history while sustainably managing growth and development.
About Me:
My wife Beth Ann and I moved from Newtown to Plumstead Township in the Fall of 1999 looking for the best place to raise our children, and we found it! Both Scott and Aimee went through Gayman Elementary and Tohickon Middle School on their way to Central Bucks East.
My Commitment to the Community:
Immediately following the events of September 11, 2001, feeling a need to serve the community, I became a member of Point Pleasant – Plumsteadville Emergency Medical Services as an EMT. Always wanting to do more, I also became a member of Point Pleasant Fire Company #1. I have held leadership roles in both organizations.
