Trail clean up and bench dedication in honor of Jack in Sunapee, NH

On Sunday, October 16, 2022 about 40 of Jack’s friends, family and neighbors gathered at Indian Cave in Sunapee, NH to clean up and re-blaze the community’s two hiking trails and dedicate a bench in Jack’s honor for all to enjoy at the lookout point over the valley at the top of the trail.  The bench inscription reads, “Jack’s love of the outdoors was born in these Sunapee woods.”  Jack and his family have been renting at Indian Cave for the winter ski season since 2008 and Jack spent many hours in the woods building forts and hiking with friends.  Remnants of Jack’s adventures exist throughout the woods and a sign reading “Jack’s Camp Solitude” has been placed at a favorite spot and his initial were recently found by his mom carved into a tree at one of his many forts.  Many thanks to the Indian Cave community especially Barry Gutwillig and Marci Cincotta, Mary and Peter Gens, Morgan and Loretta Dewey, and Lynne Wardlaw at Deck Dock Home & Garden for supporting this effort in honor of Jack.
