When growing up, most of the children in elementary school with me came from 'traditional' families, that is, they came from two parent homes in which one parent stayed at home and the other parent worked. Now we have children who come from families in which both parents working, in fact this situation seems to be the 'traditional' family these days. In addition, there was strong community support. By contrast, family ties today are far less maintained. Elementary students today lack the community support required to deal with academics, extracurricular activities and social challenges. For this reason, Boys & Girls Clubs are necessary in providing youth with a positive and safe place to go; a way to grow in a safe and caring environment.

Established in 1937, Camp Brown is located in Scotland, Maryland near Point Lookout in St. Mary's County. Camp Brown is owned and operated by Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Washington and serves boys and girls ages 7 to 13, who are residents of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. The 168-acre camp, along the widest section of the Potomac River, serves approximately 1,000 boys and girls during the summer camping season.

For over 70 years, Camp Brown has provided youngsters the opportunity to escape the bustle and heat of the city to enjoy a weeklong adventure in the countryside. Often the trip to Camp Brown is their first experience traveling outside the city. The youngsters experience the joy of a relaxing, waterfront setting and engage in structured and well-supervised programs and activities. The curriculum covers a variety of topics that nurture and re-enforce self-awareness, self-esteem, character and constructive decision-making.
