Dixie teaches kids every year the value of hard work along with the fundamentals of basketball. The camp has a unique and special enthusiasm, filled with cheering and chants, many of which have continued

shouted “surrender or face the terrible consequence!” before we surrendered ourselves and started to walk I had the family hug. A hug that I yearn for. As time rushed fast, 8 hours later I reached at the dull, muddy, petrifying camp. The camp that most people talked about. The camp that crumbled people’s lives… As soon as we got there I got spilt up with my parents. I could never live without my parents, I just don’t know how I finally managed.

They had told me to stay with this group of people who I assumed were going to the same camp as me. I could tell that nothing good was happening I was headed straight toward a camp surrounded by a tall curved barbed wire fence. I was crammed next to tons of others.

The Death of a Soldier Out of the corner of my eye I saw a large camp. Men and women suffering at the hands of these Nazi criminals.
