The 'Ive been accepted on Camp America/CCusa/Bunac etc' thread

Got my "congratulations" letter through the door today, just the wait now to see which camp wants me between now and june, happy I got on even though they say its nearly 100% that you will anyways.

Got sooo little money for this, but looking forward too it anyways!

Anyone else?

Well, i thought i wasn't going back after my first year last summer, BUT oh yea i'm returning...

Going back to the same camp from 11 June until the end of August! To all the first timers, you WILL have a GREAT time... and everyone says it BUT you will meet friends for life trust me. The friends i made last summer, we are all meeting up in florida this march and they are coming over here...

Go out there to enjoy and have fun.. and you sure will!!! Email me if you want any reassurances or just to ask any questions!!

Right! Update:

Got rang by a counceller from america last night..

Its a disability camp, kids/adults - not reeeeally what id asked for (and im sure i could say no and get another place) but it sounded okay and a nice challange for me.

One big But - its in Wisconsin, and I dont think I could afford to get from there to new york after camp (it finished 19th august)

Any thoughts comments?

Same here, all these stories coming on this site make me so eager. Anyone who is going best come back and give us a lo down on how it goes. If i cant go, i have to feed off other peoples stories.

The worst part is that technically they dont have to tell me until like a week before I go (18 weeks and 2 days yay!)

My camp (at least, what I hope will be my camp) have just emailed me saying that I have a place reserved on their performing arts team until they review my application as there's been a hold up with my references. Hopefulyl all will go well!
