There must not have been enough incompetence, apathy and graft under the previous director.

What gets me is all these programs for delinquents. Where are the programs for the kids that manage to stay out of trouble? Where is their rafting trip or horseback riding excursion? How come they don't get mentors?

I think the pandering to the problem children has only spawned more issues. I say we ditch those programs and focus on the non troublemakers. F those reprobates.

My uncle Michael was a juvie d in high school. 3 months over the summer on the county's youth detention farm, working in the fields, cured him of that.

Back in my day, these young men were kept busy during brush fire season.

An old friend of mine was sentenced to that when he got into trouble in HS.

I'd have thought for sure it had been done away with by now in favor of just turning them loose to reoffend.

Reading it, says they only take 88 between the two sites. They need to bump those numbers up clean Baltimore out.

The nice thing about those camps... if they "escape" where are they going to go?

We had childrens village in Michigan, think of it as kiddie jail / boot camp, I'm sure it kept more than a few out of the real thing.

Cairns learned a life lesson, know who you can trust.

I've heard of kids down here being sent to Cheltenham, but that sounds like typical Juvenile Detention. A training ground to become a thug and a resident of the larger penitentiaries. It sounds nothing like the forestry camps.

I found out about my uncle's rep 2nd day freshman year in high school, was a target of hazing.
A senior grabbed me and forced me down to my hands and knees, was going to sit on my back, like a stool.
Another senior came by and punched him in the head. Pointed his finger at my attacker and his friends.
"Hands off him, that's Mike D'Orazio's nephew." He helped me to my feet and got my books off the floor, too.
Word spread fast and I was never bothered again.

I later found out Michael was sent to "summer camp" because he busted a guy's knee with a baseball bat, just because.
Police Chief recommended the farm camp instead of jail, out of respect for my grandfather.

I did the same thing the summer between junior and senior year. Found out a friend of mine had tried to press his intentions on a young woman who was one of my cousins. When his parents found out why I broke their son (dad was a preacher) they refused to press charges.
