Shawn Clark

Shawn Clark was SWO’s first hired full-time staff member. Coming on board in 2000, he served as Maintenance and Grounds Supervisor until Snowbird’s year-round missions program was created in 2005 when he became its director. A native of Roxboro, North Carolina, Shawn coordinates and oversees mission groups and projects, ensuring everyone served through SMO is cared for throughout the year.

Shawn's wife, Bethany, has worked as an elementary school teacher, as a children’s camp director at The Master’s Inn in Altavista, Virginia, and graduated from Union University in Jackson, Tennessee. Bethany currently writes the curriculum for the SMO program and works alongside Shawn, maintaining relationships with the community members served through the SMO program.

Shawn and Bethany have five sons: Ty, Gabe, Luke, Levi, and Zeke.
