— OAKLAND — Michael Logsdon has been appointed acting executive director of Adventure Sports Center International, the man-made whitewater rafting course located at Deep Creek Lake.
The appointment was announced Wednesday by the Garrett County Commission, in cooperation with the Board of Trustees of Garrett College, according to a news release.
Last month, county commissioners voted unanimously to take ownership of the financially-struggling facility.
Logsdon will ensure ASCI management operates effectively and efficiently, according to the news release.
“ASCI is a valuable asset to our overall economic development strategy and I know Mike (Logsdon) and the entire staff will work tirelessly to make the project one for which we can all be proud,” said commission Chairman Jim Raley.
Logsdon joined the college faculty in 1976 and has served as director of the college’s adventure sports program since 1992. He served as executive director of the Adventure Sports Institute in 2004 and his works have been published in a number of professional adventure sport journals. He holds a master of science degree in electrical engineering.
