ERR has the summer running retreat. It's in August, and they are going to get extra rooms for the retreat for the kids on the wait list and for anybody else that wants to join. Here is some info (note they do have extra rooms now):

so i noticed that the two posts in that forum contradict themselves a tad. I'm on the wait list on the second post, but not on the one edited yesterday. Should I assume that I'm not going?

[CoachSpongeBob]

Fixed.

[CoachCortezFSK]

This is a dumb question but if you'r a wrrc member does that count for errc?

[thecommunist]

thanks coach Bob, I was a little worried for a moment

Unfortunately ERR and WRRC are different clubs. It is only $5 to join ERR (thus why their was a difference in the camp prices - only a $5 difference, so your paying for your membership. But you get other perks with being a member, like access to the member only areas on the website like the newsletter, discounts at running stores, discounts on races organized by ERR, etc)

i thought so well hopefully i'll c-u at the retreat

[CoachSpongeBob]

Jose, I thnk you are on the wait list now, and it sounds like there should be room, so I would send in that registration.

A lot of things going on here in Eldersburg, that's why we are kind of slow getting back to you.

I never really understood the point of running camps, it seems to me that you just pay money to run instead of doing it yourself for free. Now, I know it gives you a chance to run with a group rather the individually but what else do they offer and are they really Worth it.

[CoachSpongeBob]

actually, there is a lot more to xc then just running, and thats what camps focus on mostly. The ERR Camp does a lot of activities, games and things like that. And the running is a chance to run somewhere else with a group, meet new people. Best sports camp I ever went to (and I went to all sorts of types) was a running camp (and in high school I was a HUGE basketball and soccer player). They are usually a lot of fun.

maybe i will give one a try
