I last attended one of these in 2000. I found that I got far more out of the hotel room session - with several state uic's, all 3 of the national staff members running the school and the ISF & D1 umpires present. The school itself was good, the 1-on-1 sessions and others in the comp suite that Sonny ran were tremendous.
Because of living in Pennsylvania's ASA district 4, it did little to further me in ASA, but it did a whole lot for me as an umpire.
I wholeheartedly recommend the national school to anyone & everyone.

edited to correct some of the fat-fingering I did.
