Ray W. Reitz, Carbon County farm agent, was master of ceremonies for the program that was held in the camp’s dining hall, and explained Camp Daddy Allen was the original site of the camp and was utilized for many years before the campsite was changed to Camp Shehauqua, also in Hickory Run State Park.
