Matkovich Family

We have been members of Eagle’s Nest since we began homeschooling in 2012. Our children at home are Mason, a high schooler, and Willow, who is in middle school. Greg also has an adult daughter, Amber, who has a young son, Wyatt.

Through the years, our children have participated in many Eagle’s Nest groups including Archery, Robotics, Drama, Voyagers, Bridge, and Eluminatus. Amy helped start and run the EN Robotics Team several years ago. Amy has been Director of Voyagers since 2015 and is also part of the Creative Team for the Performing Arts Department.

Greg’s and Amy’s interests primarily revolve around family-related activities; however, the beach is a favorite vacation spot we often enjoy visiting. We love Eagle’s Nest and all that it means to our family. We enjoy serving the EN families as part of the Board of Directors. – Greg & Amy Matkovich

Kevin has been employed in law enforcement since 1998 and has served as a Jailer, Patrol Supervisor, K-9 Handler, Criminal Investigator, S.W.A.T team member, SRO, and currently as a Sergeant on the training unit.

We enjoy spending time outdoors together, fishing, hunting, riding 4-wheelers and golf carts, and going to the beach!

We are extremely blessed by what EN has been able to offer our family and by the relationships we have established with many of our members. We will strive to be an asset and Godly example to this great organization.
