The Land that was once Camp Alton
Posted: Mon Jul 07, 2003 8:23 pm
Hello Fellow Altonites. What I am about to say is just my opinion, and I would love to hear what you all think. Being part of the Camp Alton family, may I suggest something? I don't know about the rest of you, but all of these images on the website of the developments that have infested the land on which our beloved camp once stood are doing nothing but twising the knife even deeper into my heart. I don't know if it's because it's Monday, July 7th, and there is no reason or excuse why campers shouldn't be assembling for music night as I type this email, or that I can't stand to see enormous modernistic bull$*#@ mansions sit where I used to hit that bell with a butter knife and say grace before joining my fellow Altonites for meals, but I would love to see these images discarded from the website. It truly makes me sick to my stomach to see what has happened to the most special place on this earth. These images do nothing but add fuel to the bitter feelings I have had for the past 10 years. I love this website. I love what it has done to keep all of us together, as well as keep the memories and stories alive, but for the love of God, get rid of those images of current day because that's not Camp Alton. What it is is a giant steaming pile of tragic poo. In fact, I wish backed up septic tanks upon all of those gwakin' houses! Again, this is just my opinion.
