Groundwork – Damon

Go with the Hive (if there are no objections) Autosub benefits in many ways by being in the Hive. The Hive also benefits from AS a hive member. There has been talk about AS not going with the hive but overall it appears the camp will be in the Hive.

Leadership Positions:

There is a serious lack of core leadership. Should Autosub reduce the features in the camp to compensate for experienced campers? (ie. Reducing the quality of the food plan)
