Gary Rosenberry of Fannettsburg, Penn., killed the last buck at White Oak Plantation. This 6-pointer was one of many bucks Rosenberry took at White Oak through the years. His son and grandson took their first bucks at White Oak. Rosenberry's wife, Sandy, accompanied him on the hunt.
Sam the Wonder Dog, being ignored in the White Oak pro shop as customers come and go and the Pitmans take care of business. Sam became something of a fixture at the lodge, and always enjoyed showing off his ability to roll over, sit up and play dead at Hilda's prompting.
There's no telling how many beds Robenia Wynn made up, how many rooms she cleaned or how many towels and washcloths she washed over the years. Robenia worked at White Oak for more than 25 years--longer than anybody except Bo and Tooie.
