Orange Day Update

Apparently, the camp was as uninterested in teaching little kids a political message as I was in them doing so. My son came home today saying:
"Mom, it was just Orange Day for no reason. I was wrong."
Or his counselor was wrong, in any event.

Sounds like someone spoke to them today after parents like you called and complained. so now the kids could go home and calrify.

In my neighborhood in Chicago, the are orange ribbons everywhere (i.e. Traffic signs and trees). Do you have them in New York?

My kids had color days in camp/preschool when they were younger so I don't think it's so odd. However this mixed message/non message is really weird.
Either
A) the camp administration is so out of it they had no clue there was any meaning currently attached to the color orange or
B) they had a political agenda and then chickened out

Either way it bothers me a little.

Anon-
I haven't seen any orange ribbons in my neighborhood....
