Does anybody have a clue what this means?
How do you get responses from those people? Everytime I've tried it they've been unavailable or off-line so I e-mail them and never hear back from them.

So far as I know the deal isn't too good to be true.

Yeah, we got more off when they were running a special based on the number of times you'd gone before. They needed to attract new customers, though. Many of the people who got that discount (me) were going anyway.

Well I kept trying to get the darn discount but they eventually stopped giving it. I am sad.

Well if that price is real and not a mistake it is great. Lets hope its as good as it sounds.

Well then that is a great deal. Hope it will be aroud for a while like a few years.

Well if they did, as they should have, come to the realization that camp is crazy expensive, then the price should stay that way.

Well that would be great for both of us.

Well for me the discount means it is the same as when I got the 300 dollar discount for going 3 or more times. Too bad I can't just get another 300 dollars off camp tuition.

Well as many times as you have been already Sara the discount obviously isnt the only reason you are able to go thats obvious.

Well, I am lucky in that my grandparents spend most of the money they have on their grandchildren. Other than that I work to pay for camp. Yes, work to pay for it. There are few things handed to me on a silver platter. PLus, I just love camp.

Sorry if it sounded like that but its easy to make that assumption considering youve been 7 times and expect to go 3 more this year when i had to wait 2-3 years between trips.

Well I understand how/why you made the assumption, and I was just trying to point it out to you that's all.

I think the majority of us would jump to that conclusion.

Well i'm g;lad i'm not the only one who would make that assumption.

Well like I said it is easy to jump to that conclusion. But between the money I spend on camp and school there isn't much left. I am lucky in that I have grandparents and a mother who just want to spend money on me. But I do pay for camp and airfare. I as in me by the way....
