Was that Hoop Mountain? I know Hoop Mountain is held at Roger Williams now, but it's not an IAABO camp. I didn't think IAABO did camps in Boston and Rhode Island.

IAABO has been at URI for several years. I was there three years ago. I highly recommend it. Dates are not yet set for this summer, but it runs in conjuction with Jim Barron's camp for high school boys. Jim is URI head coach.

IAABO also will be at Northeastern University in Boston this summer: Aug. 4-7.

The camp at Boston College is run by Dan Picard. Dan is the ECAC Coordinator of Women’s Basketball Officials in the
New England region. He uses the camp as a tryout for those who want to move up to college and also for finding varsity high school refs.

About eight years ago, IAABO used to do a camp at Providence College, Providence, Rhode Island, but they got into a dispute with Tim Welsh over the way the refs were being treated and they stopped doing his camp. It was after that they started going to Orlando, Florida.
