  • A popular New Hampshire summer camp shut down prematurely this year due to “staffing and food issues.” Camp Quinebarge, which has been operating since 1936, boasts swimming, rustic cabins, archery, tennis and hiking, and comes with a price of $3,400 for just two weeks. After a summer off due to COVID-19, it closed down again just six days after opening. Counselors who spoke to Inside Edition say the problems included meals served on dirty dishes, a food shortage and not enough trained counselors.

      I spent seven months of my childhood at a summer camp with no phone or electronics (no electricity in the whole cabin) and it was awesome. That was always the highlight of my year. We'd send our parents a letter once a week, and our parents could email us and they'd print out their emails and give them to us at lunch. Aside from that, no contact with parents aside from emergencies or extreme homesickness. Our counselors didn't have any qualifications aside from first aid training, just good people who were hired by competent camp administration (most of them were camp alumni).
      By FAR the best months of my childhood. Parents in the modern age need to learn to let go. Tracking their kids and hovering over them does nothing for the kids. Most of the time it just sows distrust and makes the child feel less independent. Kids need time away from their parents, that's when a child can truly begin to flesh out their identity.

      I had a friend who’s parents would spend nearly $15,000 a summer for each of their kids to go to a summer camp for like 3 weeks. Meanwhile, I was a student ambassador and got to go to France, Italy, and Greece each for a month and it was “only” $5,500. Obviously that’s a lot but more than 2/3rd was fundraising. But the idea that these kids when to a camp like this for only 3 weeks for not THAT much more....wow. Like they literally could’ve gone to Europe as a family, a cruise, Hawaii, etc.

      Not to mention, not every parent is into camping or would even know how to pitch a tent or start a proper campfire.
      Tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of kids go to camp every year, without anything negative taking place.
      I remember going to camp in when I was a kid. It was the best 2 weeks of summer. Not because the camp was all that great. It was because I got away from my family for two blissful weeks.

    For less than that extortionate amount of money you could take your whole family ‘glam-ping’ for two weeks. Jeez, some parents must be SO DESPERATE to get rid of their kids for two weeks if they’re going to pay out that kind of money.🤦‍♀️
    Here in the UK I used to volunteer as staff for the local sea cadets. We’d do an annual week in the summer on the Isle of Wight (off the south coast of Hampshire) where approx 90 kids plus 25 staff would spend the week doing various activities…sailing, canoeing, hiking and orienteering, outdoor survival, firearms training , etc. The cost was £125.00 per child plus a 25% subsidy provided by the British Sea Cadet Corps. I worked in the kitchen with the chef, guaranteed those kids got 3 huge healthy and filling meals per day, plus any fruit they wanted and a tuck shop they could purchase from every evening. There was NEVER a shortage of food. Often there was ‘seconds’ up for grabs as there was so much to go round. EVERY KID WAS HAPPY, WE MADE SURE THEY WERE. Every kids had a blast and they came away with real certified training certificates for every course.👍🏻❤️

The boat I was on was a 30 foot that suffered a broken mast with a barely running outboard and the other was a 29 foot boat with an inoperable engine. I'm not even sure if they had radios other than the communication between the boyfriend and girlfriend but no one came to our aid and they had to tie the boats together side by side and use our barely running engine to get into a marina that was flooded with no power. Didn't help much either that right before I left at 12 that my dad tells me he's got colon cancer. Now that's a summer camp disaster.
