The Pro's And Con's Of New Officials Attending Camps

[Love2ref4Ever]

I recently met a new official and she is eager to improve and be the best official that she can possibly become. The subject of camps came up and she mentioned to me that a couple of people (one who is not even a referee) told her that she should wait to start attending camps. This disturbs me because I am a "Camp Guy" and since attending camps I have learned so much that I am quick to suggest to other officials who have never attended camps to give them a try. Now, I need some feedback from other ofiicals into the pro's and con's for new officials attending camps. This person also reads the post on this website and will read everyone's feedback. So please don't pull any punches!
