Well, it might be a year or two early for you, but Dan_Ref, Love2Ref4Ever and I all attended Mickey Crowley's 5-Star Camp this summer. It's on the campus of (what used to be) Bryn Mawr College in northeastern PA. The instruction and level of play was great. The food and sleeping accomodations sucked. But hey, camp is camp!

Yep, camp is camp. Mickey's camp is worth checking out. The
level of play is high, the clinicians are first rate and the
atmosphere is friendly (well, they do let people in from
Springfield Mass, but nothing's perfect
). Although the
second session (late August) is a *teaching* camp, not
necessarily an exposure camp, I would kinda agree with Chuck
that you might want to attend a rookie camp and get some
experience under your belt first, IAABO runs some excellent
rookie camps. After you have some experience plan on
Crowley's camp, Hoop Mountain, Ed Cartotto's camp. Attending
these camps should expose you to most of the folks you'll
have to know if you seriously plan on moving through D3, D2
& into D1 on the east coast. There are other camps but they
are mostly by invitation or out of the area (ie not going to
expose you to folks you need to be exposed to first). If
you're good, eager, willing to listen and learn and work
hard you'll get invited to the tryout camps eventually.
Good luck, feel free to email me if you like.
