The sunshine was back last Thursday as over 50 campers in grades 3-8 enjoyed the last day of Youth Track and Field Camp.
They learned track and field events in hurdles, discus, high jump, long jump, relays and shot putt throughout the four day camp. They also learned pointers from Clarkston High School students who participate in the events every spring.
John Yorke, head coach for the high school girls track and field team, added like every year the campers enjoy going to the pool at the end of each day.
