Christmas Present for Yourself

[chadozee]

Hey everyone, I just had to send out a message. This past year I had the opportunity to attend two different camps of which the Mid American 2 man camp was one. This fall, I heard some guys ridiculing camps in general, saying things to the effect of "they just want your money", or "it's just a hoop to jump through". I'm not sure how camps may have fairly or unfairly earned that reputation, but I am so thankful that the Mid American camp does NOT fit those critiques. Today I had a couple questions about the upcoming season and not wanting to seem like too big of a "newbie", I messaged a couple instructors from each camp.

The response was both informative as well as encouraging. Part of what you invest in when you go to a camp is relationships...thank you MidAmUmp for providing quality instructors who not only care about those they are working with during the camp, but are willing to invest in them throughout the year as well.

If you are looking for a great Christmas present to give yourself this year...get to a camp!

 Thanks! That's one thing I pride myself on...having instructors who are approachable and down to earth. I'm glad they responded, and quickly, too!

I think that most people that think like this have either gone to the wrong camps or think that they are better than they actually are and don't get anything out of the camps they attend.

And as for the second highlighted sentence. Guess what buttercup! You want to move up... those hoops are ones you need to jump through.
