Tim Kuster

“Tim Kuster was an Eagle Scout and was one of the first in Ohio to initiate outdoor, experiential activities with seriously challenged kids. I inherited his boots when he passed. A month ago, we took them back to the land Sagamore once occupied and placed them in the woods where we first camped with kids. We love that he’s honored annually by the Association. He’s REMEMBERED DAILY by all of us who worked with him at Sagamore. We call ourselves Sagamorons. He never took himself too seriously cuz it’s just all about the kids.”

-Tim Schaffner, 1st Kuster Award Recipient
