The influence of Earl ReumEarl Reum
Catalyst to many
My experience...Norm Hull
Earl inspired June Thompson who visited Camp Cheley...
so she started the
National Leadership Institute and a leadership camp in California
The leadership camp was held in
La Honda, CALa Honda, CA
I attended the camp in 1976
My world expanded because the words of
Earl inspired me and others in attendance
I kept returning as a staff member because I was inspired
by the wizard
Earl, you let me share the stage with you
In 1978, while leading songs, I brought a delegate up on stage to help me...Phil Boyte
who became a staff member
withwho later became...a speaker
Scott Greenberg was a delegate and later became a staff member
and later...a speaker
Micah Jacobson was my “shadow director” when I directed a CASC camp and became a member of the staff
and later...a speaker
Challenged by two delegates to a basketball game at CASC camp, Phil and I beat them...the delegates
Keith Hawkins & Rick Minniefield who became staff members and better basketball players
and later...speakers
