Camp Palos Campers Press to Keep Open the Rustic Retreat
South Cook County Girl Scout delegates urged keeping Camp Palos open at Will-Cook Road Lemont Township, arguing the outdoor experience supports girl development while the Friendship Center could not match the wilderness setting. The council faces safety defects and high refurbishing costs, and a detailed plan will be drafted by spring after a November 13 planning meeting.
