This week on the Sunday Panel, director at 818 Chris Henry and resident economist at Opes Partners Ed McKnight joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day - and more!

Are camping costs getting out of hand? Some places are charging $360 a night for a patch of grass. Is this what camping is about? Is this taking the spirit out of Kiwi camping?
