I have also heard that Jordan and Fran "stole" ideas from another camp they worked at for the past 10 years. Has anyone stopped to think that maybe Jordan had brought some of his ideas to that camp from the days he spent at Camp Horseshoe as a young boy. America is suposed to be a place were people can persue their dreams and it sounds to me like this was Fran and Jordan's dream. I have also heard that the camp he used to work at was full this year. If that camp is so great that it is full, why is it so horrible for someone to open a different camp that is also great. As long as both camps are doing well and boys are having a great time, what difference does it make.

I have read things in this forum where people working at others camps not involved in this whole thing want info. on how different programs are run, like the all night treasure hunt. Others are then posting info. about the program to help out other camps so other kids can have the experience.

Everyone in this world learns and hopefully grows from experiences in their lives. I am sure Jordan and Fran have taken things with them from every experience including old Camp Horseshoe and the camp they were working at. The people involved in that camp should not be mad but proud because other camps want to use some of their ideas because they are good.

Everyone needs to quit worrying about where ideas came from and be happy that the idea came at all. I am not sure where the tradition came from, nor do I care. I am just glad that my son went to a great camp and had the time of his life.
