Hole In the Wall

i worked at Boggy Creek Gang.

My favorite moment with Mr. Newman was when he dropped by once and a kid was eating lunch next to him at a huge table. The camper was on the bench next to him and kept asking who this "Paul Newman guy" everyone was talking about. Paul pointed at the salad dressing bottle. The kid said, "oh". And someone said, "that's him, too." The camper looked at Mr. Newman and said, "nuh-uh, you're OLD". That man laughed so hard he had tears in his eyes.

What an awesome man. He came to Boggy several times while I was there.
But what he created was amazing. Kids with life-threatening illness are "normal."
They can do chemo in the patch and go right back to climbing the rock wall.
