Graph of student enrollment data from 1998 to 2008, obtained from a survey of 88 field camps that were active in 2008, showing: 1. The total number of students enrolled in summer field camps each year (solid line), 2. The number of camps that contributed to the total number of students for each year (dashed line), and 3. The average number of students per camp, per year (dotted line). Note the different scales between the upper and lower graphs. Raw data compiled by Dr. Penny Morton, UMN-Duluth; figure after Whitmeyer et al., in press.
