This program is a really good one. I have been teaching classes there for years. The classes are about four hours long and you get to do several over the course of the weekend. Guys, this could be a great gift idea for the special lady in your life!! We hold three camps a year in different locations. This one is the "Deluxe" camp, meaning the accomodations are more comfortable. And it's close to the PHX area, so easier to get to than the Prescott camp.
