Hey star I would be careful with that smiley as the word "camp" certainly has a different connotation in Britain :0)
okay.. call me uninformed.. what does "camp" mean in England?
Heck I don't even know all the slang, "in words/phrases" in th e USA anymore
There's all kinds of camps, (I would think they have them in the UK as well) for different interests, from music to religion to writing, to all the various sports, etc. It's an American summertime tradition.
