I think I posted on the wrong site. So am re routing here, has anyone had any experience with this camp? We are thinking of taking our 2010 OF son to the Atlanta one.

Our 2011 son (of/pitcher) attended last year's camp in Atlanta. It was a great experience all the way around. Very organized, great staff, and lots of valuable information. Cannot say enough about the people who were running the camp. They seemed very genuine and put the kids (and parents) at ease. Based on our experience, they tend to focus more on the rising seniors so your son would probably get even more out of it. While they do offer instruction as part of the camp, we found the benefit to be more in the overall pro tryout experience. It is a great way for younger kids to get their feet wet and see what it is all about. For older kids, it is good exposure. It is the first camp/event we have attended where the scouts in attendance were as advertised. As far as the weather, having lived in Georgia my whole life I can tell you it will be hit or miss in December. Last year it was cold and a little rainy but it didn't take away from the overall experience. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

Thanks for your help, cmacmom . I notice that the first 2 days are instruction/coaching and last 2 are games. Did you hang out and watch the instruction, or is it a good time to leave son and venture around Atlanta? I want to have a little mini vacation too!

Once we got him settled, we didn't do a whole lot of watching during the instruction part. There were some scheduled parent information sessions but you have an idea of the schedule far enough in advance that you can make plans. We primarily watched the on field BP sessions and the games. They sent us a very detailed itinerary a day or so ahead of time so you have an idea of what to expect when and I have to say other than weather issues everything ran on time. They also provided some food (pizza as I remember) so you don't have to hang around for that reason either. You could definitely squeeze in some other activities.
