Spend the afternoon playing basketball, learn the rules, strategies, and moves. It will be also a great opportunity
to learn to respect the decision of the referee. At the end of the camp, we are going to play like Michael
Jordan, and send our players to Brazil for the Olympic games! That is for sure! Well, almost.

Come, let’s explore our neighbor, Dimond Canyon. Just beyond Dimond Park lies a magical land of song birds,
cool shadows, and a bubbling creek. A trail leads past native plants, blackberry bushes, and access to the creek
bed. We will hike in each day and see where the afternoon takes us. We will learn about the plants and where
our water comes from. And, if we are adventurous, we may even find the dark tunnel, the mysterious "white
balls," and the trail that leads OUT of Dimond Canyon. Who's up for adventure?!
Please dress appropriately for outdoor activities. Long pants are highly recommended. Athletic shoes are required.
Remember to bring a water bottle, sunscreen and a hat.
