Summer Camp Guide: what not to do Part 2

Continuing from yesterday, here is the next news clip from Summer Camp 2011. Don't let the fact that "only" 27 arrests were made make you less careful ... even cheap beer costs money and they confiscate things without ending up charging any/every one involved so... Also, a lot of festivals (Summer Camp included) treat certain things and behaviors more seriously than others... well, just read/see below...

"27 Arrested at Summer Camp"


(May 2011, Nick Perreault (underlines added))
Summer Camp is known as a three day event packed with plenty of music and large crowds, but less than 48 hours into the event, 27 arrests were made.

"Whenever you have 20,000 people in a concert situation, you going to be dealing with different elements and obviously we have," Chillicothe Police Chief Steve Maurer.

The Department did not specify what the arrests were for, but the event president says he's not upset.
"We're showing that if you do break the law, you probably will be caught, we don't have that many people, 27 people out of 20,000 is nothing," said President Jay Goldberg Events & Entertainment, Jay Goldberg.

Despite the 27 arrests that have already been made in this years event, Chillicothe Police Chief Steve Maurer says that this years event has actually seen less arrests than last year.

"A lot of the element was kept from coming in, you would be surprised the people that would come up to us and say hey this guy is doing this, this guy is doing that, they want them out of here so it makes it a safe event and that helps us," Maurer said.

Mike Armintrout says the hardest thing to control this year hasn't been the people, but the weather.
"Rain...Mud...but it did not seem to deter any of the fans or the festival at all," said Event Marketing Director, Mike Armintrout.

"Once we started to get them in, they were waiting in line and chanting and cheering and I don't you think you could have found an unhappy person."

Sunday is the last day for the event and is open to the public at Three Sisters Park.
More than 200 Police officers will be on hand and want attendees to know, if they choose to break the law they will pay the consequences.
