The boot camp is called Midcourse Correction Challenge Camp (http://wiki.fornits.com/index.php/Midcourse_Correction_Challenge_Camp). It is used as punishment by other programs like Abundant Life Academy. Normally it lasts a weekend.

FOREST TOWNSHIP, MI -- Two 14-year-old boys were arrested about six hours after they escaped from a boot camp off Farrand Road.
Police were called by the parents of the boys around 6:25 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 26, and said they were bringing the boys to a boot camp at Covenant Hills Campground when the boys fled after finding out what the camp was, according to Michigan State Police Lt. Brian Cole.

Boot camp staff tried unsuccessfully to find the boys. Troopers, K9 Units, a state police helicopter and other local law enforcement agencies aided in the search.

The boys, one from Rochester Hills and another from Troy, were apprehended at the intersection of Lake and M-15, less than 2 miles away from the campground, Cole said.

They were turned over to their parents and campground staff.
