I would suggest JJ's camp in Centerville. I went to it the past four years. Not sure what i'm doing this summer, depends on if i sign anywhere. I would also suggest the University of Akron(Coach Mitchell has a great set-up and a great group of vaulters) and i was told that Purdue University(Coach Zuyderwyk and Coach Warner have a smaller group of vaulters right now) is going to have a summer camp?

Oran Mitchell runs some great camps in South Haven Michigan every summer. theyre more centered on beginning vaulters i think (0-12' range) but theres allot to learn not to mention his camps are insanely fun. :yes: If you want the info Pm me or somethign and ill dig it up for you.
What have you done today to get better?

I live right outside chicago, and a few years back, i had issues about finding camps, but i did find a few good ones.

North Central College in Naperville, IL- Very good camp run by Coach Winder, it's every year from June to the end of July. They jump everyday and you can sign for two days a week, not a bad deal.

SkyJumpers in Maine South Highschool in Chicago area- This is during February though, other sky jumpers camps that i went to during the summer were in Wisconsin, Steven's Point, another exceptional camp.

I'm not sure but there is a group called vault Chicago, down at Bloom highschool, run by Jan Johnson's brother, I think. I saw there website and i think they have a summer/fall program for jumping, but it's too far from my home so i don't know much about it
