Haven't been to a UPC or ALJC camp meeting in many years but that's about the way I remember them. I remember some good teaching by Bro. Lester McGruder and by Bishop Karl Smith and by William Parent. And, sorry to say I remember driving for several hours to an ALJC camp meeting and the morning "Bible Teaching" was a harangue by an anti-tv, etc. preacher from NE Ohio. I thought, "I got up early and drove all this distance for this junk? Where's the Word?"
Evening services were about seeing and being seen and usually just pep rallies led by some "star."
