Join us around the campfire at Camp Hope as DCHA Museum Attendant Angelo Schimmenti chats about the Wanaque Reservoir. Today, the reservoir is a major landmark of upper Passaic County, but at the turn of the 20th century, that valley was home to several families, businesses, farms, and a lush forest. We'll learn how the construction of the Wanaque Reservoir in the 1920s upended one community and reshaped several others.
