Bud Cox tells the story of Charles R. Scott, Wawayanda's founder

Bud Cox talks about Charles R. Scott, who founded Camp Wawayanda in 1901. Keep watching until the end and you'll hear the remarkable story of 1954: Scott, 80 years old by then, visits Wawayanda and its Andover, NJ, location (final year there), while Bud himself was at camp for the very first time. Scott passed away right there in the dining hall, just one table over from where Bud was sitting. Bud concludes by remarking on the symbolism of continuity in that encounter.
