We are writing as concerned citizens about the Boy Scouts even considering selling Camp Easton to Discovery Land Company. The deed of 1933 gave the land to the Boy Scouts in perpetuity. I believe the former owners had the foresight, as did our forefathers when they drafted the Constitution of the United States, of what this piece of land could do for millions of boys. I think they were thinking about what an experience this place could give boys, rich and poor. I do not believe they intended it should be shared with a few old rich men who only want to get richer. There is no place in the United States that could replace Camp Easton. Please tell Discovery NO THANK YOU.
