Since we’re doing a history theme this week I got in the car and drove to Delanco with my dad on Sunday to visit the location of the original camp and get a Boost Slushie at the 7-Eleven that is there now.
The two signs are all that remain of the property, which was initially a 20-acre parcel purchased from Charles Fletcher to establish the Fletcher Grove Camp Meeting but was sold off in pieces prior the camp relocating to its present location in Tabernacle in 1965.
As I explain in the video, it was really surreal to be drinking Boost on the original property of the camp. There’s nothing necessarily special about what’s there now but the history of that plot of land is anything but insignificant.
