We get Amber Alerts that set off an alarm noise on our phones. Wonder if that would solve the problem. Although I read the campers had phones taken away, understandably. But staff and counselors would still have them, I assume.
Take responsibility for stupidity
Someone please ask why things did not improve after the 1987 high school youth bus flooding search rescue incident
