Most of the 1 week adult camps are more of a fantasy experience where you pay a bunch of money to skate with some former NHLers for a week. The more you pay the more high profile the players. Sounds like you are looking for a development camp which really doesn't exist. Most rinks do beginner type camps for adults, but those are more of a one day a week type thing

For the money you will spend on a "camp", you might be better of taking a hockey "school" once a week for 20 some odd weeks.

I already play, but want to up my game I guess. I might look into once or twice a week things then.

Or find out more about the camp? What kind of tuition/scrims etc it comprises, who the coaches are, ice time per day etc? I did a one week one last year and wouldn't do it again as I found 3 hours a day on the ice too much (I'm old ), but it certainly focussed my mind on what I needed to learn and I ended up knowing what to do next on and off ice.
