Robert Volpe is a long time Hen Island resident, present stockholder, son of Board member Lorraine Volpe and nephew of long time Board President Ben Minard. By his own admission, Mr. Volpe partook in retaliatory measures against Ray Tartaglione after his public awareness campaign shed light on environmental violations on Hen Island.

After a night of heavy drinking and partying, Mr. Volpe and his brothers admitted to urinating on tents where grade school girls and their fathers camped out overnight on Hen Island. Mr. Volpe has also been suspected of vandalizing property, urinating in water tanks used for bathing and domestic use.
