1. Glenn Rudderow Marker

Inscription. Glenn Rudderow (b. 1953) painted this mural of a marsh depicting duck hunters, rail bird pushers and shooters, trappers and the Schooner A.J. MEERWALD. Mr. Rudderow is a nationally acclaimed artist who grew up in Cedarville, NJ. He was inspired by the marshes to capture the landscape of Southern New Jersey by painting en plein air (outdoors). His goal is to "demonstrate an understanding of nature, the world around us and our place in it, into cohesive images with unique identities." Rudderow studied with the legendary Pat Witt at the Barn Studio of Art and continued his education at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art in Philadelphia where he taught for several years. He has exhibited nationally and has received prestigious awards.

Erected 2025 by Darp Patel, Troop 1065.
