Hosting FLL Summer Camp

Hey all,
Last year Team 33, the Killer Bees, hosted a summer camp for 4th-8th graders who were signed up to be on a Lego League team in the fall. This was our first year ever doing a camp, and we have decided to run one again this coming summer. We are asking any and all teams who have run a Lego League camp before for advice. Our basic structure: We split the kids into groups and led them around different stations for programming, building, and teamwork lessons. At different points during the days, we gave presentations on how to do research, gracious professionalism, and showed them what a research skit would look like. We found a program out there that we think takes you through running the camp(we've never seen it in person- just read about it) and were wondering if other teams use such programs and if they are worth getting.
Thanks!
