Bwtcamps 2018

Hi @Iestyn, will you be publishing details on this thread of any Northern bootcamps that will be taking place next year please? Somehow or other I managed to miss the one that was held there last year and so I’d very much like to be prepared for any that are planned for next year.

Incidentally, I can support what Iestyn says about the effects of the bootcamp experience on your ability to speak Welsh but, unless you’re very confident of carrying it off based on very little, you’ll be better off getting at least course 1 under your belt first, more if you can.

As an added bonus, Tresaith and the surrounding area is absolutely beautiful.

Northern bootcamps is usually Aran’s thing rather than Iestyn’s.

The latest word from him I believe is still “Not sure yet if we’ll be running a northern bootcamp in 2018”:

Hallo, potential bwtcampwyr - I have a date!’’

Ok thanks. I cant make head nor tail of it all i’m afraid.
I think its now sold out.
Thanks anyway

Oh that’s a shame, Emma! This bwtcamp did get booked out extremely quickly. The successful people must have been sitting at their computers with their fingers poised ready to click on the link the second it appeared. From what I could tell, it was clicked by 11 people in the first minute!

Helo. A couple of friends and I would be interested in a bwtcamp. Exhausting but brilliant I think :blush:

I live in Ceredigion not far from Tresaith and have young children so don’t want to be away from home overnight. Is it possible to come to bwtcamp for daytime activities alone or does that defeat the whole purpose? Thanks

The idea is to be totally immersed in Welsh for the whole week @Ros. Do you speak nothing but Welsh when you’re at home? If not, then you definitely wouldn’t get the real bwtcamp experience.

I’m hoping that by replying to this message i will see updates! Thank you.

You will. If you thinking about the June bwtcamp there is a separate thread for that. There may still be a place or two left as Iestyn hasn’t updated the thread as he’s been on bwtcamp this week. I expect a lot of updates will happen over the weekend when the current bwtcampers are released from only being able to use Welsh.
