So I just got the email on 12 day ASA this week. I'm thinking of going, but I have a few questions.
Is it as fast paced as 6 day? I remember it being very fast paced, and a bit tiring, so I'm not sure if I could handle 12 days at that pace.
What are some things that 12 day gets to do that 6 day doesn't? I know that some examples are Marshall tours and the 24 hour EDM.
Thank You!

I went to 8 day in 2004 before there was a 12 day. The 24 hour mission was totally worth it. I know that 12 day is set up differently than 8 day was but the kids that go seem to love it. In 2010, I was working in the robotics lab when the 12 day group came in and they were a great group of kids. They were all having so much fun and it made me wish there was 12 day when I was ASA age.

Awww man! Dan, you are so very lucky if you get to go next year! 6-day this year was AMAZING, but I can't go to 12-day for next year because it's smack dab in the middle of our finals week... Sigh... I can't believe school ends at the end of June!
