Jack Torres

Jack’s earliest memories of the Canal are of family day trips to New Hope, when he was fortunate enough to be able to experience the mule barge rides. After moving to Bucks County, he learned that the Canal was, indeed, more than just an attraction in New Hope.

Jack resides in Erwinna, just above the Canal, and enjoys walking and biking on the towpath in what he considers to be one of the most scenic areas along the waterway’s entire length. He became involved with the Friends when he was asked to help out with Canal Clean-Up Days. Since then, he has served on the Fundraising Committee, as well as the Advocacy, Restoration and Maintenance Committee, and is also a business member of the Friends. Jack values having the Canal as part of his community and is committed to preserving it for future generations to enjoy as well.

Jack is a Real Estate Agent, licensed in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and enjoys telling his clients about the Canal, the Friends, and all of the many activities that make this area a special place to live.
