[nfbmi-talk] Volunteering at Camp Tuhsmeheta

[J.J. Meddaugh]

I am wondering why the NFBM chose July 17-22 as the date ws for waht is now 
Science Camp? This date overlaps with a technology weekend hosted by the 
MPVI in Grand Rapids. It seems like moving the camp just a day later 
(Sunday-Friday) would solve this conflict and allow for more people to 
attend both programs.
Thanks.
