Last year there were 50 people attending, but there were never that many on ice. I wouldn't call it packed. I'm a timid skater and I never felt uncomfortableBabbette Duboisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721808053479678691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5679510245284968389.post-75582941553234566142014-03-12T10:39:27.229-04:002014-03-12T10:39:27.229-04:00Thanks.

I don't want to mislead you on times, because I'm only talking about what's happened in the past. You'll have a couple of months to plan before the camp starts. The announcement for the camp should be in the next few months.Babbette Duboisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721808053479678691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5679510245284968389.post-23891435236800741032014-03-02T15:38:57.211-05:002014-03-02T15:38:57.211-05:00Is the first 'event' the Sunday reception ...Is the first 'event' the Sunday reception at 7 pm?<br />What time/day is the last event?<br />I'm trying to figure out when to arrive and depart for the week-long adult camp.<br />thanks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5679510245284968389.post-28753208127944795562013-08-26T08:02:34.700-04:002013-08-26T08:02:34.700-04:00The first time I went I took several classes.

There may be time now for adults to skate in the show.

I didn't know that June was changed to a weekend; I might have attended. Please note, I said "might", as my recent past experiences at the camp had been anything but good.<br /><br />When I first attended the camp, adults were allowed and invited to skate the Saturday evening show with the kids. It made those of us who did it feel special. I am still saddened and a bit hurt that we are no longer invited or wanted at the Saturday night show. It's almost as though they want our money, but not our skills.<br /><br />Skatecathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13584353013344184567noreply@blogger.com
