This camp is goated
I can confirm
It is written in the email that the contest is from 8 to 12, not 11. Which time is correct?
Hi! The Entrance Contest will take place from 8:00 to 11:00 am UTC. Sorry for the confusion caused by the email!
It's hard to look at lips you can't kiss, it's hard to look at a camp you can't make it to
When will the link for the entrance contest be sent?

Hello, I registered for the camp on Saturday. Should I have received an email? Nothing has come in my inbox or spam folder and I haven't gotten a response to the email I sent out. Sorry for the inconvenience.
