Question Camps?

I just finished my first year and really got into it. Learned a lot, worked with great people, and had some good games. Now it's all over. There is some limited summer work, so I was thinking about attending a camp this summer to improve my skills and continue to learn. There will be an IAABO camp about an hour away from where I live, the questions I have are:

1) Are camps/clinics helpful for someone at my experience level?
2) Any recommendations for camps/clinics in the New England Area?

THANKS FOR ANY COMMENTS....

Absolutely. There are camps that are right for every experience level.

While I can't point you to specific camps (I'm in Oregon), you should be able to find something within a short distance that is appropriate for newer officials. Ask your assignor or some fellow officials...they'll heve the best info for your area.

If you are in the Mid-West area, Gerry Pollard, and Midwest Ref School are good and about $200 each. Gerry Pollard is a good guy. You will learn a lot from both camps.
