Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino is opening a new summer camp on Long Island this summer. It is called Camp Harbor View and it is opening this Monday. 300 kids, ages 11-14, will spend the month of July out on the island, playing sports, challenging themselves on a ropes course, learning about the natural environment, and developing leadership skills. In August, an additional 300 kids will get this same experience.
All day today, Greater Media, which owns and operates five radio stations in Boston, is hosting an all day on-air and on-line fundraising effort for the camp. The day long on-air and on-line fundraising effort will take place on Thursday, June 28, 2007 from 6am – 7pm. It will be broadcast live on all five Greater Media Radio stations, (96.9 WTKK-FM, 102.5 WKLB-FM, 105.7 WROR-FM, 106.7 WMJX-FM and 92.9 WBOS-FM), located at 55 Morrissey Boulevard in Boston. Anyone who would like to donate will have the opportunity to make pledges via phone at 866-325-GIVE (4483) and on-line at the Camp Harbor View Website. The website has great auction items, including Red Sox tickets, trips, concert tickets, etc.
This should prove to be a great experience for the youth of Boston.
