One more thing - There is a field camp director listserv that is managed by
NAGT; I think Kurt Burmeister is organizing it. In case you are not on that
list, here is part of the message that was sent out yesterday. It includes
a link to subscribe to the list:

*How to sign up*
I did not auto-enroll camp directors into the listserv - I felt it was
important to give folks the choice to join or not. If you are interested in
joining the listserv, please use the link below to enroll. You will be
asked for your first & last names, email address, institutional
affiliation, to select the name of your field camp program from a drop-down
list (or enter if not listed), and for your role at that camp.

Take care all -
