Jazz-rock legends Steely Dan once sang, "I Got The News". (They also sang "Daddy Don't Live In That New York Cty No More", but since we have no idea what that song is all about, we'll leave it right there.) And in the spirit of that great song, we're pleased to present the first edition of MyCampFriends.com: In The News. (Cue newsy, fanfare music here.)

Extra! Extra! MyCampFriends.com has been profiled in several major publications: DailyCandy.com, the Chicago Tribune's Red Eye Newspaper, Business Week Chicago, and OyChicago.com! And like a proud camper bragging to his/her parents on visiting weekend about their newfound soccer prowess, we've decided to use this space to boast of the media exictement surrounding
MyCampFriends.com.

You can read the wonderful OyChicago.com piece on MyCampFriends.com by clicking here. (It's a long one, hence the link.)

Wow! Pretty cool, huh? It's like a media care-package, without the need to share with your cabin. (Sharing? Um, not when there's Reeses Peanut Buter Cups or Pizza-flavored Combos involved...)

Be sure to keep checking back here for more media updates, as well as as other exciting news concerning site updates.
