I still own a few shirts from the ol' Bargain Hut! Oh, the memories! Oddly, it seems to me—though I could be wrong—that camp was way ahead of the curve on thrift clothing, or "vintage" clothing as it became a few years after camp closed and hipsters were donning more and more old school apparel. That could easily be a view biased by my age, but as far as I'm concerned, that's a fashion trend that came straight out of the Northwoods. Absolutely!
