After 21 years of developing Next Gen Entrepreneurs, Camp Start-Up is taking a summer's pause to regroup and redesign a fresh approach to entrepreneur development. This means there will be no 2016 program.

Stay tuned to see what comes next for an experience that has had such impact on so many teenagers. I especially hope the CSU Alumni Network will stay in touch--with each other and this page.

And please reach out with stories, questions and suggestions. Your lives have been an inspiration and the impact you collectively have--today-and for years to come--is immeasurable.

Namaste, Joline Godfrey
