Do a lot of clowns go to camp not knowing anybody? I have this fear that I'd be a loner/outsider the whole week.
Also, how does it differ from Mooseburger's shorter events? I did her Clown Adventure in Vegas a few years ago, and, although fun, I wouldn't say it changed my life.
Everyone who has done Mooseburger says you leave more confident in your clowning. Admittedly, I have this phobia of clowning in front of clowns I don't know. I tend to get intimidated by them and, when I go to conferences, I hardly ever compete (intimidation factor again). The one time I did compete, it kind of freaked me out a little.

Very few of the clowns at camp know each other before camp but create some great friendships at camp.
What year were you at GCA Pickles? I was there in 2003 and 2005. While GCA was fun it can not compare to the real Moosecamp. Camp is more intense, more concentrated, more potent.
At Camp there is no itimidation factor because everyone is learning together. There is not the competition attitude that you find at some conventions.
