Sorry, my math and concentration was great affected by the fast.
When I was a camper in 1965, there were the expected sports, swimming, boating, arts and crafts, color war and a couple of plays. We didn’t go on trips.

Now the camp not only has a computer lab, photography and video production studio, but this year added a 1/2 $Million Robotics building.

What ever happened to spending hours outdoors playing ball?
The dining hall now offers a salad bar as well as both vegetarian and vegan options. I remember lots of Government surplus pasta, canned fruits, peanut butter and butter.
Then we good get one treat each weekday from the canteen. All packages arriving by mail had to be opened in front of the head counselor and if you got a box of candy sent by a relative it had to be shared with the entire bunk.
Now Amazon trucks drop more than 100 packages a day. Some campers bring mini refrigerators, all have done electronics.
It is a different world
