This is a big one. No matter what your clinician tells you, your basic appropriate responses are "Ok", "Got it", "What could I have done better?" and "Thank you".

This is especially true in your position as a brand-new official.

Along these lines...strike these two words from your vocabulary for the entire camp: "YEAH, BUT..."

Listen...and take what you can use. You're going to get conflicting advice or messages. When that happens, bring both perspectives back to your local assn. and find out which to use. Good luck. Camp should be fun.

No excuses. None. Okay, three words.

And, it applies everywhere. Not just at camp.
