Butch Swank

CEO/Agent

Butch is our Commander-in-Chief or Fearless Leader, depending on the day. He is a Florida native and a family man who loves spending time with his wife and two children. To say that he is actively involved in our community might be an understatement. He is passionate about our community as well as the quality of our children’s education. Both are a huge priority and, to him, worth fighting to improve. Butch is a member of the Lee County Economic Development Horizon Council, serves on the Board of Lehigh Regional Medical Center, has served as president of the Lehigh Elementary School Advisory Committee, and has partnered with Lehigh Elementary to establish a Watch D.O.G.S. program. Dads of Great Students is a program that encourages dads to be more active in their child’s education. He is a founding member of the East Lee Education Cooperative and an invited Community Stakeholder for the Lee County School District Proximity Project. Butch has served on the Board of Directors for Lehigh Community Services and is a founding and active member of the Southwest Florida Business Alliance. Butch is also a guest contributor writing articles for our local “The ROAR” publication.
