Does anyone have experience with or feedback on Bardo's Collegiate Camp? With so many camp options, we want to be selective with our time and money. I just can't find any reviews or feedback on this particular camp. Thanks in advance!

We're attending this year. I know most of the Bardo's people and know, for sure, it has been well attended in the past. I also know you can trust that the schools they say are confirmed will show up. In fact, at least three schools on the list specifically asked (well, at least strongly suggested) that my son be there since we live in Colorado.
It's been a few years, but I recall it as being well run and well attended by coaches representing a variety of college programs. I can tell you it was definitely worthwhile for my son (a pitcher), but it's also in my backyard, so the cost was very reasonable.
Thanks so much for the feedback! I appreciate each of you taking the time to respond.
If you have experience with this camp (positive or negative) please share as this camp cost between $350-$600 not including travel expenses.

With so many camps and showcases the hard part for parents is sifting through the fundraisers versus the opportunity for exposure to college coaches.
Lionsbaseball, you are right about needing to sift, especially considering that we would have travel costs involved. I have used this forum to search for opinions on camps and showcases before, and was surprised to not find any reviews or feedback on Bardo's Collegiate Camp. Is it worth the money if your son is not a pitcher???
Just FYI - our son will not be attending this camp because it is the same weekend as the ACT. Since he has so many spring baseball conflicts with the other ACT and SAT test dates, he has to take this test. I have noticed that some other camps and showcases similarly schedule during the test dates, although I know it can be hard avoid (for instance, the Arizona Academic Junior Fall Classic was a day after the PSAT). For kids that have to travel, this becomes an issue. Thanks for all of your replies!
