It may be distraction, but money is money, and it's being put towards a useful cause.
Agreed.
There was this little rumor waaaaaaaayyyyy back in the day, that one of the kids (unidentified) at MDA summer camp's father was a drug kingpin and that he threw some serious bucks at the week long get together so his child (and the rest) could have a bang up time.
I never seem to recall it being investigated...or more to the matter...If true, they were fine with it.
I do remember several years of camp, that when the kid in question attended, it was out of this worrrlllddd.
Loading "everyone" up for Disney world, all paid for, all food paid for, t-shirt's, jackets, fantasy pieces...all paid for, for EACH kid.
Same thing with Sea World the following year.
Same thing with Bush Gardens the next.
Live local talent playing for the kids at camp, different acts, several times during each week long camp session. It was the craziest friggin shit.
When the kid passed away, it all stopped. Finger painting and shitty camp food took over.
Coincidence? Perhaps.
But I like to think some of my Disney memento's, from then, that I still have to this day...have some Scarface on them.
I'm a sucker for treasured nostalgia *snniiiiffffffffffffffff*
