Piet Grobler 37

A plaque on one of the walls of the reception and information office at the entrance of Skukuza rest camp commemorates those who are seen as the founding fathers of the Kruger National Park. They are Piet Grobler minister of lands who introduced the National Parks Act in 1926, President Paul Kruger after whom the Park was named and who was the overall driving force behind the establishment of the Kruger National Park and major James Stevenson-Hamilton, the first warden of the Park.
