Should we expand?

[Dave]

I want everyone's opinions on this. Do you think we should expand our audience? I'm not sure if it would make a huge difference, but it might worth a try anyway. Should we try adding a section for parents to come and ask general questions about camp? Do you think this would work? Is it worth giving it a try or would it just be a flop? I want your opinion!

Dave, in all honesty. I would say no. I happen to like that I don't have to censor myself in case a parent or camper comes on the site. We happen to have something really special here, in that we are all in the same boat. I think that many of the threads and posts are the equivalent to being "internal use only". I think it should stay that way

I think TalkCamp.com should stay as it is :)

There are all sorts of places for parents to get camp info and to ask questions. There are very few places for camp counselors/staff to do the same.

This has become a great place to share ideas, concerns, ask questions, get advice when requested and ask for reality checks when needed.

Just my twocents. :)

I feel the same way as runrachrun and tajarbud. I like that it's JUST camp staff. Most (decent) camps offer that parents can ask any questions they wish, anyways.

i agree. if you want to make another site for parents i think that would be fine but don't make it so they can easily find this one. its good that it's just staff.

keep this one the same just for staff... make another parents one if you like but keep them seperate

I have to say all the staff on this site are right.. I don't think that it would be a bad idea to start up a page for information for parents. I know that they can look at this site if they want to and see what we type. I think that my vote is this site stays for the staff!
