The
Krouner family has been on this beautiful site since 1913 when
Paul's grandparents operated a dairy farm, which
later became
Krouners' Hotel. Paul's parents, Lou
and Clara, converted the hotel into Camp Schodack in 1957. Paul
Krouner has been the Owner/Director since 1970.
A graduate of Johns
Hopkins University, Paul has a Doctorate in Education from Syracuse
University. He was a teacher and
elementary
school principal and later became an Assistant Professor
of Education at Wheaton College. Linda graduated from Barnard
College and received
an MA in Sociology from Columbia University and an MM in
Piano Performance from the New England Conservatory. She currently
teaches reading in the Newton, Massachusetts Public Schools.
Paul
and Linda have two children, both Schodack alumni. A graduate of Brown University and the Manhattan School of Music, Becky is an opera singer. She lives in the Bay Area with her husband Brendan, a non-profit executive, and their beloved dog Walter.
