A fire chief, a pilot, a captain, a business owner these are just a few titles Neebish Island resident Bob Schallip has mastered in his lifetime.
Schallip was originally born in Hamilton, Ohio, and attended Bowling Green State University where he obtained a bachelor of science in education. After, he briefly taught in Denver, Colorado, then returned to the family school bus business in his hometown. From there, he taught at a large vocational school in Cincinnati as a senior diesel instructor.
At a noise and vibration control engineering firm, Schallip built and operated a test cell for engine noise testing. Schallip and his wife bought Schallips, Inc. from his parents. The company then contracted with New Miami Schools.
