40k kids without a camp and that's your reaction? Very sad
Very sad is putting it mildly. That's the understatement of the millennium.
And just to be clear, I have zero skin in the game here. I'm not a camp owner or director, nor am I remotely related to one. Not even my kids are impacted by this decision with our camp having successfully moved to PA.
I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I just feel it was extremely unfair to come out with this ban in the name of public health after all that went on in NY (and all over the country) with the mass protests and doing nothing to stop THAT in the name of public health and safety. On the contrary, it was actively condoned by our governor (as well as mayor but he's irrelevant in this discussion anyway). Elected officials should not behave this way and have a double standard and I know I'm not the only one that feels that way.
