About Dev Camp
For those unfamiliar, this camp is a week-long live in camp that is heavily scenario-based training. We offer ART, FA. IRBC and IRBD. We focus heavily on leadership and offer a lot of leadership knowledge, experience, and training. We are hoping to expand beyond the bass region this year and offer both candidate and leadership roles. We encourage everyone to partake.
