Thanks, Rafi.
I played some more last night and observed more odd behavior: When I reloaded the game, the quest restarted so I escorted all the kiddies back to the camp. The counselor vanished again but the survivor icon stayed on the map and I somehow got a girl scout survivor. Saved and reloaded again and I still had the girl scout, but the quest restarted though the survivor vanished again once I finished the quest.
Anyways, I know you said that you're working on it for tonight's update, but I thought I'd share just in case you hadn't seen that other odd behavior. It's great and impressive that you're cranking out updates so quickly.
