Reply to "Jupiter Event - Pros and Cons"

My committed 2023 son decided to take the fall off to work on getting bigger and stronger, so in turn is skipping Jupiter. He went last year, so had some experience already. He is got some grief about not going with his organization, but ultimately we all decided there is nothing to gain from it right now except a big credit card bill. Spoke with the dad of a kid who was a 1st round pick last year. He said his son only ever once went to Jupiter. Said if you have your school already settled, and already on the scouts radars, that there is no absolute need to go. Was glad we heard that from him as it reinforced our decision for the fall/winter.

Was it fun last year (even though in Ft Myers)? Yea, no doubt it was fun. But I didn't think the bang for the buck was all there for what the bill ended up being after the trip was over.
