Despite hundreds of people "liking" Facebook Groups dedicated to keeping Maho Bay Camps from going dark in a year, no one has stepped forward to organize an effort to purchase the land or extend the lease.

Kristin Hawk posted on one of the groups she thought Richard Branson could be a white knight "He's close by, a nature lover, and filthy rich."
Scott Drennan, general manager of the Camps, was quoted by the International Business Times saying, "If we could just get 23 million people to donate a dollar each, then we'd be fine." That's the price the owners of the Camps' land are asking for the property.
Drennan said the plan right now is to "pack up and leave" June 1, 2012 when the lease expires. "All improvements - anything bolted down - stays on the land," he told the Business Times.
