Philmont Scout Ranch, which is the largest Boy Scout camp in the USA, announced that they were cancelling all summer programs today, after a fire burned through 36,000 acres and is still only 25% contained.
I'm a former Philmont staff member, and my brother was going to be working there this summer as well. It really sucks to see the camp close, but given what I've heard about the fire and its containment, it's not that big of a surprise and probably the right move.
