As you walk by the many shops and buildings in Heritage Hill that we have grown fond of, do you ever wonder what existed here before? ... The only remnant left to inform people about the camp's existence is a plaque placed in front of Central High School near the south east corner of the building.(Submitted on February 28, 2024, by Nathan Bierma of Grand Rapids, Michigan.)
