While it’s raining and only 50 degrees here in Ann Arbor, the fact is for many parents, it’s summer camp season.
And thanks to the Internet, I just learned about a wonderful option!
The Songdowon International Children’s Camp in Wonsan is supposed to help young foreigners (especially from Communist countries) get acquainted with the isolated country, attracting over 300 attendees from Russia, China, Vietnam, Ireland and Tanzania, the AP reports. Charging $270 per child, the government-subsidized camp boasts activities like cooking, volleyball, swimming at a private beach, boating and even access to a water slide. Accommodations include air-conditioned rooms with video games.
What a wonderful opportunity to broaden your child’s horizons by learning to embrace other cultures! And such a deal!
Can summer camps run by Isis be far behind?

There used to be communist youth camps and clubs here in Berkeley, but they are all gone. They used to have camp literature from Cuba and East Germany at the Bolshevik Cafe in west Berkeley, but the Bolshevik Cafe is gone too. I used to go there. Where do Berkeley communists send their kids to camp nowadays?
The kids of Berkeley communists used to go to a summer camp near East Berlin. They always came back with Knusperflocken. It was an East Germany confection made of milk chocolate and flakes of what tasted like toasted bread. It wasn’t bad.
There were commie kiddie camps in upstate NY. And kids grew up reading things like The Little Lenin Library, with Pete Seegar and Paul Robeson playing in the house, or WBAI.
Camp Kinderland, Wonderland, something like that.
Cambridge, MA needed three different communist bookstores, Red Books in Harvard sq, RCP, The Rosa Parks Center in Central sq, SWP, and around the corner, the Center For Marxist Education, as far as I could, run by a whacko old Stalinist.
We still have one communist bookstore in Berkeley, Revolution Books. It is large and well stocked.
