Madison Scott community vigil draws thousands

VANDERHOOF — Thousands poured into the field at Nechako Valley Secondary School to remember Madison Scott, and share stories.

A trio of speakers including Vanderhoof Mayor Kevin Moutray, Scott family friend Julie Hodson, and Nechako Valley Search and Rescue member Mark Durupt addressed the crowd estimated at over two thousand people in size.

As many questions remain, the speakers preached patience to the crowd, insisting if they could wait 12 years to get to this point, a little bit longer is possible.

The community vigil was organized by members of the Nechako North Stars Senior AA Hockey Club with permission from the Scott family.
