I went to Harry's and 25 years later I'm a (fairly) successful D-1 umpire (10 conference tourneys and 5 D-1 Regionals). I've never regretted going to Harry's.
Oh, and it's not a "working vacation". You will work as hard as you want to, and you will be trained as well as you expect, and you will be given every opportunity to prove yourself, on the field, off the field, and in the classroom.
Be in the best physical condition you can whip yourself into BEFORE you go - you won't regret it!

With those game scenarios...that's interesting, I didn't know they did that. Thanks for the post.
