@guyfawkes4-20 main concern was that we might be getting too many entries; my main concern was that we might not get enough. As it turns out, the difficulty level of this Quest was perfect because we had 27 completed Quests regardin Travel, Food and Homesteading, which is around the number of participants we were hoping to get.

Browsing through the week the sndboxquest tag was quite refreshing and we got to know each and every one of you a bit more while you posted each step of the quest.

You are trully amazing Steemians and we are thrilled with the posts you made. We already knew the decision was going to be difficult but we didn´t expect it to be almost impossible.

The truth is, the Travel, Food and Homesteading Quest is only the first of at least 5 contests. From these contests we expect to get at least 50 people to be eligibile to do the Final Quest, and then join the Summer Camp so, as you can imagine, we have to decide, as every Quest finishes, who gets to be eligible to do the final Quest.

If you don´t remember the Summer Camp process, here it is:

---

1. A Steemian must finish one of the various SndboxQuests to be eligible to join the Final Quest.
2. Every Steemian who finished and was selected to do the Final Quest, must finish it fulfilling all the requirements to be eligible to be part of the Summer Camp.
3. Some of the Steemians who finish the Final Quest, will then proceed to be part of the SndboxSummerCamp. Througout the Summer camp, every member will receive support, guidance and advice from the @sndbox team. Sndbox is the most amazing project incubator in the Steemcosystem, so this Summer Camp is serious business.
4. After the summer camp, the top of the class will form part of the @sndbox cohort 2, and will get support, advice and guidance throughout all the second semester of 2018.

As you can see, this is a long term project and, based on the entries you guys made, and according to the @sndbox vision @voronoi and @hansikhouse have for @sndbox, we selected these Steemians to go to the next phase and be able to join the Final Quest:

Without any particular order, these are the Steemians who can join the Final Quest, scheduled for late April.

_{Edit: There was a Final Comp that didn´t show up in the sndboxsummercamp tag due to a glitch in the system but after seeing the post, we decided to include the last Steemian on the list.}

To all of those who didn´t win: Your entries, all of them were amazing and we wish we could pick all of you but it was not possible, we have a limit for the Summer Camp and that is why we are doing a final Quest where not everyone will be picked. There will be other Quests and perhaps you have some skills to participate in one of them, do not despair, your time will come.

The next Quest will be about Photography and Filmmaking and it will be posted this week, be on the lookout!
