Nance Greggs: A Note Home from Summer Camp
To the Parents/Guardians of Willard Mitt Romney:
As you are already aware, it was with great reluctance that we accepted your child, Mitt, into our “Presidential Campaign Camp” program this summer. From the outset, it was clear that even the members of the Very Young Republicans Club, who sponsored his entrance into our program, were unenthusiastic about his participation at best. We now understand why.
Our program was designed to give interested children the experience of creating their own “campaigns” for elected office via fun activities like speech-writing, coming up with slogans, marketing strategies, etc., in order to hone the leadership skills that will serve them in their future endeavors as adults.
Once integrated into the group of PCC participants, to say that Mitty does not play well with others would be an understatement of immense proportions. While he has tried repeatedly to rally other campers around him during playtime, the gatherings continue to be small and poorly attended – despite what you may have read in the FoxCamp Newsletter (which we at PCC have always considered to be a questionable source of summer camp news, traditionally appealing to youngsters who can’t read).
