The absolute best thing you could ever do for your vaulting career. Pat was the nicest guy on the face of the earth, and is a really tremendous coach. I reccomend this to anyone serious about their vaulting.

About how many vaulters attend each camp? Do coaches come too, or not?

Its a pretty sweet deal. Just 5 kids at a time. Its really personal, unlike the big camps that you would go to at some college. Nobody's coach was present when I went.
Ps. Pat feeds you well too!!!

The 800 dollars didnt scare me off, and it shouldnt scare anyone off. The experience and the coaching that you get is so worth it. The last time that i talked to Pat he said that the girls camps were almost full. I am not sure about the boys camps. It is for both girls, and boys, but he does seperate camps for them.

I would just give him a call. His number is on his website, and I'm sure he wouldnt mind answering questions in person...
Or email him...

I don't get why people think this is so expensive. Think of it as a vault vacation. You would easially spend $500 on just a hotel and food if you stayed on your own. Then it would be $275 for a 4 day camp! Sounds like a no brainer to me if you want what sounds like an amazing experience. Maybe I am just not his target audience and I am not a broke student so I think it is reasonable.
