The session schedule I'm seeing on the site looks an awful lot like the session schedule I remember from last year. I don't think it's been updated yet.
The site hasn't been updated yet, and the session schedule that is up is from last year. Just getting the camp on the calendar so that for planning purposes. Expect more information about session submissions, sponsorship opportunities, and training after DrupalCon.
Looks like I'll be in the US, and probably visiting my parents in MD at that time no less, so I'm excited that I might actually be able to make my old "local" camp! Definitely looking forward to more news.
I missed last year, but I'll be joining this year and I'm really hoping to help a lot of ppl get over the Drupal learning curve.
On the day before camp, I'll be over at the Phase2 offices offering a very unique educational experience for attendees.
DRUPAL IMMERSION is the new name for the Mentored Training classes popularized by Chris Shattuck.
Rather than running you through a curriculum that may or may not totally apply to each attendee, we're going to MENTOR you into Drupal excellency!
In BadCamp, Denver DrupalCon, MN, and other places, we have pulled people together, given them weeks of free access to the Drupal Training videos at http://BuildaModule.com then mentored them on site while they continued to watch more videos. People raise hands and have a skilled Drupal expert help them with their Drupal quest. The feedback has been AMAZING!

Your best choices are either Dulles or Reagan National. Both offer transportation to the city, although National airport is directly on the metro line, so that might be a little more convenient. However, flights into National tend to be more expensive for that reason.
Reagan National (DCA) is much closer to the city and way more convenient in terms of transportation. If you're lucky, you can sometimes find good fares, but like taupecat said it's usually pricier.
The Delta flights between Boston and DCA are usually the best way to go, and then you can just jump on the metro to head downton. If you need to make a hotel reservation, we have a block of rooms for CapitalCamp at the Renaissance Dupont Circle: https://resweb.passkey.com/Resweb.do?mode=welcome_ei_new&eventID=9747817
I'm thoroughly enjoying Capital Camp 2012. This is my first time attending a Drupal conference. Heck, it's my first time being in a room with another Drupal developer. Thanks to all for the hard work that's being done to put on such a great event. Every presentation has been above average, and the services, vendors, refreshments, and help given on site has been outstanding. Many thanks!

what is the closest airport?
what is the closest airport? I am coming from Boston.
Airports
Your best choices are either Dulles or Reagan National. Both offer transportation to the city, although National airport is directly on the metro line, so that might be a little more convenient. However, flights into National tend to be more expensive for that reason.
+1 for National
Reagan National (DCA) is much closer to the city and way more convenient in terms of transportation. If you're lucky, you can sometimes find good fares, but like taupecat said it's usually pricier.
