Step 1
Decide what kind of camp your team needs. There are many varieties of camps including, commuter (campers travel to the camp each day and return home at night), day (these camps do not last past early afternoon every day), resident (stay day and night at the camp), All-Star (Elite performers), co-ed (male and female camp) and specialty camps (stunts or competition). Evaluate your team and figure out which you need.

Present the information you have to team members and parents. Only present the camp information that your team can afford.

Attend the camp. Enjoy your camp experience. Make sure you make plenty of pictures; it will be a time you will want to look back on.
