I assume everyone with a 2017 or 2018 who has attended an HF event has received email and snailmail invites to this? (see below for the details and links)
We're not giving it serious consideration but I think it's a nice attempt on Headfirst's part to expand their business, and I can see how it might work for some families because there is value in helping kids cope with major transitions.
My quibble would be that it doesn't seem to make much sense for 2017 and 2018 grads to attend the same camp. I'd stick to 2017 only, but probably they didn't think they'd do enough numbers that way to make it profitable.

PREPARE FOR YOUR NEXT STEP: HEADFIRST PRESENTS THE SUMMIT
Dear .....,
We’re excited to write to you with a special invitation to a NEW Headfirst offering: THE SUMMIT, to debut July 9-11 in Miami, Florida during the MLB All-Star Week!
We've created THE SUMMIT with the express purpose of helping guide you through the next steps of your academic and athletic journey, with programming and curriculum tailored specifically to the unique challenges that lie ahead for the classes of 2017 and 2018 in their recruiting process and college journey.
As a member of the class of 2017, you have successfully navigated the college process - congratulations! Over the course of three days at THE SUMMIT we'll focus on maximizing the unique athletic and academic experience ahead of you by equipping you with the tools to succeed from your very first day on campus - both on the field and in the classroom.
Our Honor Roll Camp alumni have a track record of high achievement and high school success as holistic student-athletes - but college is a whole new ballgame. The workshops for the class of 2017 student-athletes will focus on the tactics, strategies and habits that you can start building now so that you can succeed at the next level, with an emphasis on the newfound autonomy and freedom - and the required re-calibration of discipline and individual ownership to balance this freedom with the new academic and athletic challenges that await.
Led by our Headfirst leadership and featuring experts and leaders in fields such as finance, sports medicine, technology and journalism, THE SUMMIT panels aim to orient you to the future as you think about life after college and your career opportunities.
Along with the networking opportunity that our panelists can provide, we'll look at life after college athletics, and the opportunities that you have to redefine a traditional career through your unique intellectual and athletic passions and interests.
For the days of July 9-11, Miami will transform into the epicenter of the sports industry as the MLB All-Star Game takes over the city. As you look towards your own future, we'll also enjoy the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game, and also the up-close-and-personal fun of the MLB All-Star Fanfest.
We invite you to join us at THE SUMMIT to connect once again with our Headfirst team, your Honor Roll alumni peers, and leading industry professionals as together we look towards the next step in your journey and prepare for success.
Please note that the capacity for this event is extremely limited to maximize your personalized experience at THE SUMMIT, and open only to Headfirst Honor Roll Camp alumni - enroll now on THE SUMMIT website.
Best,
Brendan & the Headfirst Honor Roll Camp Team
