Trails Carolina Camp Shut Down After 12-Year-Old's Death

North Carolina regulators have ordered the closure of Trails Carolina, a therapeutic wilderness camp, following the death of a 12-year-old boy. Concerns for the health and safety of children prompted the order, and campers have been released while new admissions have been halted. The state is conducting a thorough investigation into the circumstances of the child's death, which occurred less than 24 hours after his arrival at the camp. This marks the second death at the camp in a decade, with the previous incident involving a 17-year-old boy in 2014.
