Re: This or That marty #109774 08/11/09 04:18 PM A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A 11 weeks - it can be exhausting but more fun! go to camp early, and unpaid to do training or turn up at the start of pre-camp?

Re: This or That marty #109778 08/11/09 07:03 PM A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Not, but I do think people should use discretion. Everything spread out around a larger camp, or close together (with the rest being hiking trails, wilderness, etc.)?

Re: This or That #109780 08/11/09 08:21 PM A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Something in between - I didnt like all the cabins close to gether - but it can be a pain to have to walk 1/4 of a mile to the dining hall! high ropes or low ropes

Re: This or That marty #109787 08/12/09 04:18 AM A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A I would definitely watch. I might not approve, though. Lots of wildlife around camp (including potential dangers), or nothing but a few mosquitoes and squirrels?

Re: This or That #109788 08/12/09 07:35 AM A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A lots of wildlife on your day off on one is available to drive you - would you walk to the bus stop/uni campus an hour away by foot for food etc or just stay on camp?
