Excerpt from Character Education in Summer Camps The organized summer camp is the most important step in education that America has given the world. The first summer camp is supposed to have been founded in 1861 by Ernest B. Balch? Who realized the possibilities of developing boy character through wholesome outdoor life and recreation. A decade ago the value of the summer camp as an educational institution began to be recognized as distinct from its recreational values. Since that time the use of the term education has broadened to include both recreation and character development, and has become synonymous With the processes of life itself. Only recently, however, has camping been thoroughly criticized and evaluated in the light of modern educational objectives and methods.
