COLLEGIATE OFFICIATING CAMPS 2009
"I have attended over 50 Division I camps over the past 15 years and I can tell you that it was one of the best I have ever attended. It was first class from the very second I arrived at the hotel."
"I really enjoyed the camp atmosphere, very professional without feeling like it was just a camp to make money. The staff was second to none and was a pleasure to work with. I gained a wealth of knowledge and will apply it in my future endeavors. I would recommend it to anyone."
"Thank you for an excellent MAC Officials Basketball Camp. I truly enjoyed the time spent with you and your staff, as people, not just referees. The extra knowledge that I gained from your very professional clinicians was just another bonus. Before attending your camp, I felt as though I worked for some outstanding conferences, but after this past weekend, I now have a new outlook on what top notch means. Now it is very clear to me why officials want to be associated with the MAC. It is a first rate organization."
"As you stated in your meeting Friday night, one of your goals was to put together a first class camp. I need to tell you it was accomplished and then some... it was a great job! You are correct in saying there is no other camp in the country with a staff like yours. The staff assembled was unbelieveable: a wealth of knowledge that was organized to cover every game, every court, every day. Great guys, great information. Once again, great job. I totally enjoyed attending."
"Please accept my thanks for the opportunity to work the MAC Officiating Camp at Eastern Michigan. I enjoyed the experience, and regardless of the outcome, came away feeling I was given an honest look by the MAC which means a lot these days. Again, thanks for the opportunity."
"I want to thank both of you for running a great camp. The clinicians, facilities, lodging, etc. were all first class. I learned a lot and it was a great camp opportunity."
"Thank you for a great camp. The staff was excellent with their critique and provided a ton of valuable information."
"Thank you for running a 1st class camp. I really appreciate your effort to make us better officials. You have a great plan for the MAC Conference."
"Kudos to you for an outstanding camp - Incredible teaching staff you assembled. Wow. I also want to commend you for the emphasis on value. I think it was pretty obvious to most, given the accomodations and meals, that this was not a big money-maker for anyone; very refreshing and truly appreciated. The golf/BBQ was a nice addition and gave us a chance to meet many of the clinicians and campers in a relaxed environment. Overall, a first-class experience and ranks right up there with the best I've attended over my 10+ years of attending camps."
"Thanks for a great camp at Eastern Michigan University - the best camp I have been to. I had a great time and learned some things in the process... what more could you ask for?"
"Honestly, it was the best camp I have ever attended. The camp is run in a first-class manner from start to finish."
