I can find no sources to indicate that this camp passes the WP:GNG. In terms of news articles, I've only found a [http://www.cbs19.tv/news/camp-tyler-keeps-paul-bunyans-story-alive/452862414 local source] that's more about Paul Bunyan than Camp Tyler and a [http://www.tylerpaper.com/TP-Blogs/293333/grants-help-young-people-make-memories local blog] from an organization that gave a grant to the camp. Not GNG material.
There is a [https://books.google.ca/books?id=ly6HdbvibcEC&pg=PA162&dq=%22camp+tyler%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiIve6cgqbVAhVD2IMKHUJYC6MQ6AEILTAC#v=onepage&q=%22camp%20tyler%22&f=false book] that mentions Camp Tyler, but upon inspection, the book's information about Camp Tyler is almost 100% identical to our article, verbatim. The book was published in 2011, while our article was created in 2008, so I believe this is not a copyvio on our part but an unattributed Wikipedia import on theirs. Since the information is a copy of a Wikipedia article, it doesn't qualify as a GNG source. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 03:52, 26 July 2017 (UTC)

Provisional keep. Using my newly granted newspaper.com access, I found a number of old newspapers talking about the subject, including describing it as the first of its kind. I request this discussion not to be closed until I had time to analyze the sources during my lunch break. Regards SoWhy 07:32, 11 August 2017 (UTC)- Okay, this is what I found: [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/13014850/wikipediaarticles_for_deletioncamp/] [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/13014806/wikipediaarticles_for_deletioncamp/] [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/13014925/wikipediaarticles_for_deletioncamp/] [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/13014920/wikipediaarticles_for_deletioncamp/] [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/13013511/wikipediaarticles_for_deletioncamp/] (incl. mentions in Michigan and Louisiana newspapers). Unfortunately, my lunch break is not nearly as long as I would have hoped so I can't provide more now but even based on this and the amount of hits (350+) I think this is sufficiently notable for inclusion, albeit barely, so weak keep.

- Delete: nothing to suggest that this camp is particularly notable when compared with others (WP:MILL). Also, {{u|Premeditated Chaos}}, I'm also working on the Feb '09 backlog :) DrStrauss talk 16:36, 19 August 2017 (UTC)
