Camps......How many and how much $$$$$

[Raymond]

• Staff camp as a camper ($$$$/local)
• Staff camp as an observer (free/travel)
• Instructional camp ($$$/travel, but slept at my dad's house)
• Instructional camp (free/local)
• Try-out camp ($$$$/travel)

Already have done 4 of the 5 camps. I will not pay for more than 3 camps a year.

Staff camp was right down the street and instructional was in Philly......correct

Leaving for last camp of the off-season in three hours. Lone Ranger reruns until then.

Oh, sorry, I just remembered I might have mentioned watching Lone Ranger reruns in a previous post some time ago. Don't want to be guilty of posting the same thing MultipleTimes.

Gotta do what you gotta do to get yourself to that "steamed status" as a poster....

I can't wait for the movie to come out in a few weeks. As a big fan of the 1950's television series, I'm afraid that I'll be disappointed in the movie, but I'm still going on the first night.

Also, for your information (hey, it's the off season):

The Lone Ranger is never seen without his mask or a disguise.
With emphasis on logic, The Lone Ranger is never captured or held for any length of time by lawmen, avoiding his being unmasked.
The Lone Ranger always uses perfect grammar and precise speech completely devoid of slang and colloquial phrases, at all times.
When he has to use guns, The Lone Ranger never shoots to kill, but rather only to disarm his opponent as painlessly as possible.
Logically, too, The Lone Ranger never wins against hopeless odds; i.e., he is never seen escaping from a barrage of bullets merely by riding into the horizon.
Even though The Lone Ranger offers his aid to individuals or small groups, the ultimate objective of his story never fails to imply that their benefit is only a by-product of a greater achievement—the development of the west or our country. His adversaries are usually groups whose power is such that large areas are at stake.
Adversaries are never other than American to avoid criticism from minority groups.
Names of unsympathetic characters are carefully chosen, never consisting of two names if it can be avoided, to avoid even further vicarious association—more often than not, a single nickname is selected.
The Lone Ranger never drinks or smokes, and saloon scenes are usually interpreted as cafes, with waiters and food instead of bartenders and liquor.
Criminals are never shown in enviable positions of wealth or power, and they never appear as successful or glamorous.
The Lone Ranger uses only silver bullets, to remind himself that life, too, is precious and, like his silver bullets, not to be wasted or thrown away.

Wrong. I am not the only one allowed to do it. I'm the only one who is really good at doing it.

Agree 100%. You are indeed, really good at answering your own posts. And, I might mention, you are also quite handsome, and very intelligent. Maybe, someday, we could work a game together? Coffee after the game? Drinks? Dinner and a movie?

[jeschmit]

Hmm, let me look...

April - $225 (flight, room and rental as well)
May - $300 (room as well)
June - $400 (flight, room and rental)
June - $50
July - $225 (flight room and rental)
July - $400 (room)
August - $100

7 camps total, $1700 in camp fees. I don't even want to add up the flights, rooms and rentals.

Still wouldn't change this summer as I've learned a TON already, and I still have three more camps to go!

Let's see, my dad and step-mom live in Glenolden and my job is 1.5 miles from the Boo Williams complex.

Yes, you are correct.

You win a free, autographed B-Mac belt buckle.

IAABO approved camp, this weekend, $200.
($50 deposit, the rest payable upon arrival.)

And once again, I'd like to thank this forum for the encouragement of such camps.

[Rich]

3. Total of about $800. Plus hotels, cause I don't do dorms.

Here's my favorite belt buckle:



Whenever I wear this buckle with my black belt, I never have game management problems with coaches. Don't know why, but I never do.
