This past Summer 26 people ranging in age from 40 to 70 went away to Summer Camp for the weekend. The organizers called it Boomer Camp. It was at Camp Ocoee and for a couple of days in addition to wine tastings and a smoked salmon supper, they kayaked, canoed, hiked, swam and sang songs around a fire like kids at camp. “It was an opportunity to play and have fun without feeling guilty about it,” said one.
The camp was a big success; the organizers had hoped for eight people, 26 signed up.
So they have organized another Boomer Camp at Camp Ocoee for the weekend of October 14 -16th. Richard Winham talked to Joy Krause and three of the campers who got way outside their comfort zone and found they liked it.
