McIntosh Fights To Save Youth Camp, Jobs

POSTED: 9:42 a.m. EST January 28, 2002

Officials of McIntosh County are fighting to keep the Youth Development Camp open in order to save 170 jobs.

The camp houses 165 juveniles for a 90 day rehab program.

Gov. Roy Barnes cut the Development Camp out of the budget, saving some $5.8 million.

Officials argue that McIntosh County is one of the poorest in the state and cannot afford the economic impact of losing the camp.
