Looking to see if anyone has been to the 3 camps listed below and can provide feedback on their experience and the level of most campers:

1) Referee's Choice in VA

2) Rise to the Top in CO

Thanks!

I've been to the Emerald City camp twice. Most campers are at least accomplished high school officials.... a lot of them are JC trying to break into D-3 and D-2. A few big names there teaching, but Greg Nixon is the big dog of the camp. Lots of information in the classroom on the first night and then a lot of reffing over 2 days. They use crews of 4 and you get substituted liberally (yanked out) to get instant feedback. Don't go if you have a problem with clinicians getting into your grill a little bit.

Referee's Choice is run by best friends Mike Eades and Roger Ayers. Great teaching camp and they have a deal with one D3 supervisor that they will provide the name of 1 camper to be picked up by that D3 supervisor sight unseen, just based on their recommendation.

Roger and Mike are 2 of the nicest big dawgs you'll ever meet in officiating.

Camp season starts for me in less than 2 hours. Facility is 5 minutes from my office, couldn't ask for a better venue.
