I understand fully why such a ministry for troubled folks should N-O-T NOT be placed in Southwest Dallas. For many years, Camp El Har served thousands of safe, law abiding children and adults from many communities without the fear of robbers and criminals being nearby. The biggest mistake that happened in 2005-06 was to end the successful ministries that Camp El Har provided for many years. I fully blame the folks responsible for making such arrogant and ignorant decisions to literally reduce and eliminate the great programs El Har had to offer. Before 2003, the former board members of Camp El Har were continuing to expand the camp for the good of the people. The Bible says to "Make disciples of ALL NATIONS!" As a former employee of Camp El Har, the camp did more than a great world of good for thousands of people that I witnessed for myself!! The best solutions to this problem: 1. Re-establish and restore Camp El Har as it was with all of the successful programs they had before 2003! 2. Move this other ministry to a distant and more open location, where those with serious issues can get the help they need without being a burden to folks like The Boy and Girl Scouts!!! Closing and ending Camp El Har the way they did in 2006 was more than a cost prohibitive mistake!! Literally, even elementary school children could have voted to keep Camp El Har alive!! It was totally sad to see this camp close as it did!!
