The land is still owned and operated by the boy scouts of America. I was just there this year and got kicked out for taking photos. The camp is only 20min from my house.

I pretty much stand by my first comment. Fuck Lincoln.

Since its a school that bought the place, they might be using it as a Summer Retreat place for students and/or teachers to use for themselves that involes the school. At least its not gonna become a shopping center or something else.

I thought it was a boyscott’s camp(hense the title of the camp)? It’s funny if you ever went to Camp NoBeBoSco site they don’t mention anything of F13th being filmed there. I guess they really don’t want fans to really go there. Well let’s hope these new owners will hold on to this piece of cinamatic history!

@Chad. Come on now, lets not say anything we don’t mean. Say what you will about Taft or McKinley, but leave Lincoln alone! rofl

I’m with Chad, I couldn’t care less about Lincoln. To me, the place where Friday the 13th was filmed is more important.

Chris, no war at all. Just different view points. At least we didn’t break down into 14 year olds calling each other names.

Peace

Cereal….. Understood. But like i understand where your coming from, I hope you understand where I too am coming from. I can see this will start a war.

Chris as much as I love the movies lets be realistic. I agree it would be cool to not change it. But your quote was “With zero regard for fans and history” A bit dramatic don’t you think. They dropped a cool Million $$$ to use the property not make a museum to a classic horror movie. Its not like they bought the constitoution and are burning it. It was a summer camp that a movie was filmed at.

Not hating just saying.

@cereal thriller

That is true because even historic property owners don’t give a shit about preserving landmarks with huge significance. I mean it does suck but I think we’ve all seen places of great importance to larger crowds done away with for better business.

Really? Were all serious? Someone bought the land and can do with it as they please. Its not Pres. Lincolns birthplace or something of historic significance, I don’t think the new property owners care about a small group of movie fans and their possible hurt feelings.

I hate to come across as a dick but come on.

I hope they preserve the camp like they preserved the Myers House from the original Halloween.

I’m sure (even though they probably don’t even think about the area) I wonder what Betsy palmer, Ari Lehman, and even Adrianne King would think? Is there any contact info that we can all try to bring over here about this?

By: Corey

Corey — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 21:37:45 +0000

Well let’s hope so John. I understand that over time, things change, but if this area (particularly since this place started it all) changes I’d literally be heart-broken. I mean seriously…
