**Truth In Advertising, Please Read!**

As A Public Service, Vertical Adventures Will Shed Some Light On A Few Of The Most Common “Scams” That Can Ruin A Camp Experience. Our Camp Was Started To Put An End To These Unscrupulous Practices.
  1. Most Camps That Advertise 4 Or 5 Days Are Really 2 & 3 Day Camps! They Have Check-In LATE On The First Day And Check-Out EARLY On The Last Day. They Count These As 2 Days Of Your “5” Day Camp.
  2. Most Camps Fill Their Days With “Recreational” Activities Such As As Swimming, Volleyball, Basketball, Etc. One Pole Vault Only Camp Promotes Surfing & Skateboarding As Part Of Their Activities. These Distractions Do Nothing To Improve A Track Athlete’s Performance. Our Camp Is TWO FULL Days Of Intense Training With The Greatest Athletes & Coaches In Track & Field History!
  3. Many Camps Employ “Bait & Switch” Tactics To Lure Campers. They Are Vague About Their Staff Or Promise “Name” Clinicians, Then Substitute Them With Mediocre Ones. They Use Words Like “Prominent”, “Outstanding” And “Certified” To Hide The Fact That They Are Using Sub-Par Clinicians. If They Don’t Tell You Who The Staff Is, Watch Out! That’s Why We Tell You EXACTLY Who Our Clinicians Are And Then Detail Their Legendary Careers For You!
  4. Most Camps Use Words Such As “Fundamentals” & “Basics” To Describe Their Level Of Instruction, Yet They Charge You Premium Prices. You’ll Be Taught At A Mediocre Level In A “Relaxed” Atmosphere. “Informal” Also Means Little Structure Or Quality. Our Staff Teaches You StateOf-The-Art Techniques At A Championship Level. Learn What It Takes To Be A Champion, From The Champions!
  5. Most Colleges And Universities Host Camps As An After-thought. The Coaches Are Merely Providing A Community Service Per Wishes Of Their Administration. Our Camp Is Staffed By The Most Driven Individuals In Track & Field. Our Passion For Excellence Is Second To None!
    *Latest College Scam Alert: Many College Coaches Are Now Promising Help With Admissions At Their School If You Attend Their Camp! They Also Tout Their Camp Facilities As Superior, While Downplaying The Sub-Par Staff They Utilize! As A Rule, If A College Hasn’t Already Recruited You, Attending Their Camp Will NOT Help You With Admission Or Joining Their Track Team! Lastly, STAFF Should Be a Camper’s First Priority When Choosing A Camp, NOT How Nice The Facilities Are.
  6. Many Camps Are Owned By Equipment Companies & Use Them As A Tool To Sell You Vaulting Poles, Apparel, Videos And More. They Utilize High Pressure Tactics & Offer Special “Limited Time Discounts” To Campers Who Buy On The Spot. Teaching Is Secondary & They Should Be Avoided!
