Parents Summer Competitive camps

[ivhose]

My daughter is level 8 and has never been at gym camps. She is asking to go but at her level I don't know of any that could expose her to some new, fun skills while conditioning her well? If that exists?

I have read so many posts on recreational camps but what about more serious camps? Anything out there?

Anyone have insight on the WOGA team camp?

See if any NCAA teams within driving distance have a camp.

I agree. Dd went to an NCAA camp last summer and there was girl there who I am pretty sure her parents sent just with the hope that the coaches would like her and recruit her. From what I saw, it probably worked. She was working some pretty amazing skills under the direction of the college coaches.

Ditto everyone above! Even if she is young.....the experience and exposure are priceless!
