This is awful. My thoughts and prayers are with the families of the Scouts who were at the camp.

 Hope they are all ok! Nothing worse than sending your child off to scout camp for a week and have something like this happen.

| tragedy. but i think it should be pointed out that the first responders that did most good were the rest of the scouts at the camp. scouting is good stuff. for the kids AND adults.

| Before I say what this post is going to say. I'd like to start out by saying, I'm glad this didn't turn out worse than it did. It's terrible four teens lost their lives, and dozens more were injured. Big Kudos to the first responders. Boy Scouts, and Paramedics alike. Now onto the controversial part..... [Tongue in cheek] Perhaps Congress should pass legislation banning all Tornadoes within the continental United States. They seem quick to pass bad laws in the wake of all other tragic events. Why should this be any different. [/Tongue in cheek]

| I always thought a Trailer Park was the worst place to be in a Twister. I can't imagine being in a Tent when one hit. From the reports those scouts kept cool heads and did a great job in treating the injured and searching for the missing. My boys are going on a week long camping trip this summer with their scout troop. It's darn scary thinking about anything happening to them when I'm not there to help. Our prayers are with the Families of all those Young Men.
