About Us
Gulf Coast Naples, FL Chapter
The DSC Gulf Coast Naples Chapter was established in 2024 by Terry "Doc" Sweet along with his wife Judy, daughter and son in law, Theresa and Chad Nibbelin II. All of whom relocated to SWFL and brought their love and passion for wildlife conservation to the Gulf Coast Naples area along with them. The purpose of our non-profit is to partner with local youth and local Veterans to keep our Gulf Coast waters clean and to promote the conservation of our local wildlife and their home.
We are excited to partner with local organizations who share our visions. Please reach out to us for membership, auction, donation and volunteer opportunities.
