Sure it might sound like an adventure, but the task of finding staff, campers, and even alumni is much harder then you might think. I decided this September to try and look in some unconventional places to build a winner for next summer. After Josh and I tried unsucessfully to find anyone at the Philadelphia Phillies game, I thought hmmm, maybe we have exhausted our options on the east coast. Let me head out to California to try my luck. So far I have met one person who had a sister that went to Chingachgook in the early 80's. Where did I meet this person? Alcatraz of course! Don't worry parents, I asked, Alcatraz's counselor release program ended when the prison closed in 1963. But it would have been a great addition to our program right? In the last couple of days I have searched at an Oakland Athletic's Game, near the Golden State Bridge, Alcatraz, and in the California Redwoods. Any place I'm forgetting? Pretty soon I'll head south a little more and look around Anaheim and Los Angeles...
