My Project

My husband and I are both teachers and multi-sport coaches in our community. We try to do all we can to support our student-athletes, and we absolutely love spending almost four months of the year coaching and mentoring the high school JV and Varsity girls' basketball teams.

Each summer we ask the girls to help mentor and coach at our youth summer camp, and nearly all of the team happily participates.

We offer camp for both girls and boys entering grades 1-8. Last summer, we held sessions that offered exercise, skill-building, competition, and confidence to approximately 150 students in our small community. This is not only a great bonding experience for the girls, but it's a way to raise a little bit of money for team uniforms, traveling expenses, and other costs that occur throughout the season.

These basketballs, socks, and cinch bags will be given away at camp as prizes throughout the week. Campers are always so excited to go home with prizes that they can use during the following season. There are so many positives that come out of this camp, and having these prizes would make it even better!
