Not a reply but an inquiry; are you the Rabbi Phil Bentley who was the Director at the J bar CC Ranch Camp in Elbert, Colorado in 1971? A book based on the reminiscences of past directors at the camp recently came out, and I noticed that the Phil Bentley who was the director in 1971 during my first year as a camper was left off of that list. I did an online search, and here i am; how many Rabbi Phil Bentley’s could there be?
