Update: Girls' Camp Recidivism
This from Tom Denham of Eckerd Youth Alternatives about my recent column and blog post on Camp E-Nini-Hassee north of Tampa Bay:
It takes awhile to get recidivism numbers, because they have to track the kids for one year after they leave camp. The most recent data is from campers who were there in 2004-2005. For that period, it had a recidivism rate of only 15%, which is considered extremely low. Most other female camps had a rate of about 27%, and most boys’ facilities have about 44%.

I told you so. I was very insulted by your reference to a tall blonde. Was everyone else black? This is the type of journalism the Times is famous for. Tell the truth when you write.
