For over 40 years, Ralph and Rose Hittman ran camp Wabenaki, a summer camp for kids who would never otherwise have a chance to get out of the city. Many of these kids become hardened street thugs at the earliest age. But two weeks at camp and they get a chance to be kids again, to be one with nature, to have fun with their peers and to learn the values of brotherhood, community and teamwork. Several generations of campers swear that if it weren't for Camp Wabenaki, they would have ended up in jail or worse. This film was created by one of those campers. Written by Anonymous See less
