To my great sadness I just returned from two days at the new Camp Horseshoe. It was spectacular! Jordan is doing a fantastic job. His staff is tremendous, the facilities are great and the kids are having a blast. Donny Schwartz was with me and Robbie Weinstock was the camp doctor and Big H was doing inspections and Bill Engel was supervising everybody. The only thing I kept thinking was I have to get home and get my wife to try for a son so I can send him here. At every meal the kids and staff do constant cheers inside the mess hall. Frankie D would have gone crazy. Donny and I led a "flee fly" for the whole camp in the mess hall. They have Mercier hall Frank Demyan field, Big H court and Doc H field. I was extremely excited to see the GH plaques on the wall of the Mess Hall and hopefully we will soon see the Green Brown plaques as well. I could go on forever but my words do not do this place justice. Considering how much I loved the old place and dreamed of it re-opening I could not have been more proud of what Jordan and Fran are doing. as soon as my girls are at Birch Trail I will once again join the 20 mule team and be a counselor there. hail to the forest and start looking for arrowheads again because the Chief is back!
