Campers Enjoying Time at Camp of Champions

 

The 28th Annual Camp of Champions concludes today, and the campers have been enjoying the four days of non-stop basketball.

 

Led by Coffeyville Community College head men's basketball coach Jay Herkelman, campers ages 5-15 are able to improve their basketball skills and learn from experienced coaches. The camp has been an annual tradition since Herkelman's first season coaching in Coffeyville.

 

Seven year old Daxon Mills says the campers are both learning and having fun in the process.

 

Along with working on improving their skills, Herkelman and the coaches also have skill competitions. Carson Voss, who's been attending the camp since he was six, says his favorite is champion shooting.

 

The camp is also preparing some for the competition of high school tryouts. Kane Nash, a 14-year-old, says he's improved his game all week.

 

No matter what age or skill level you are, Krim Herring says it's all about having a great time.
