I thought recalled reading a post from someone here who had gone to Reds fantasy camp. Has anyone ever gone? Would you go?

Too rich for my blood.

Yeah, I would never go that far.
A slight twist on the original question, would you plan and save to go to fantasy camp?
I would--If I don't get back until then, I hope to go for my 50th birthday as well. (If my kids would get scholarships to college or a long lost rich relative would die and leave me an inheritance, I could get back there much sooner!)
Where we gonna go?
I went for my 40th birthday, 5 years ago. It was the best time I have ever had and I would go again if I had the money. Playing baseball all day and hanging with ex-Reds, many of them from the Big Red Machine was really fun.
Where we gonna go?
I think I'd really like it.
I want to go badly....however it will have to wait till the kids have flown. Just hope I can still walk by then!
Let's play two!!!
Went on my 40th birthday. Wonderful time. Highly recommend it.
There's a 40th birthday theme that I seem to have missed out on!
What did they do for umpires there?? Did they pay locals to do the games??
Since I really haven't played baseball in 22 years but would love to part of any Reds pasts event, I always wondered if they would let me come down and let me umpire the games if even for free.

They were minor league and college umps. Its about a week before spring training so they use it to tune up. They were really nice guys.
Where we gonna go?
I went to Cooperstown for my 40th. Easier on the wallet than Fantasy Camp and just plain awesome (though I'm sure Reds Fantasy Camp is amazing too).

My youngest was conceived on my 40th birthday.
She used to wake me up with coffee ever morning
Locals, I believe, George. You should inquire about that.
