Awesome there is an event, so where are the rares and event commons?
No, this is a User-ran event so it is not an official Menewsha event. This is event is ran by regular users like yourself instead of the staff.
What is the point of having an event if there are no items?
A user-ran event is a way to for the regular users to give back to the community and show this appreciation for the staff.
Why a summer camp?
Well we wanted to have a theme that hasn't been done before and something that people thought of when they think of summer. So after debating over a few themes we decided that this was the one we wanted to go with because it would be fun and different.
How do I participate in the event?
The hostess' have prepared many wonderful contests and games for you to participate in. You can find these contests and games stickied at the top of the event forum. There is a summary of the contests and games below in Post #5.
When will the event end?
The event will run for one week so it will end sometime on the evening of Friday, June 22nd.
Are we allowed to chat here?
You are more than welcome to chat here as this is a place to hangout as well as ask any questions you may have.

No, you do not have to post in the event colors. They are just posted so that people that want to can make an avatar using them or post using on of them. You won't get in trouble for not using the event colors.
