We want every young man who leaves our camp to have a total and complete understanding of what it takes to be successful in the game of basketball. In the past twenty-six years, Coach Fiegel has won five State Championships (1993, 1996, 2007, 2009, and 2010). They were second in 1998 and finished third in 1994 and 2011. Overall his TEAMS have made eleven State Tournament appearances. In 2007 and 2010, he was chosen by the Wichita Eagle as Metro Coach of the Year and All-State Coach of the Year as well. When you think about what camp to choose for your son this summer, ask yourself these questions:1. Do you want a tough and challenging camp for your son?2. Is twenty-six years of summer camp experience important to you?3. Do you want your son to work harder than he has ever worked and have fun while he is doing it?4. Do you, at some point, hope that your son will be a high school player on a great TEAM?If the answer is yes to any of these questions, then this is the camp for you. We are committed to providing a challenging and instructional experience for your son. Every player will receive a basketball report card to evaluate his current skill level and a camp T-shirt. Each session will be limited to thirty campers, so enroll early; sessions fill up quickly, and we are committed to the thirty-camper limit to ensure quality instruction.

Boys and girls in 3rd through 8th grade spend their days with friends and counselors doing all of the typi-cal camp things: swimming, cooking out on a camp fire, canoe trips, arts and crafts, having treats, horseback riding, games and a lot of not-so-traditional things, like feeding and caring for snakes and hamsters, studying ecosystems and astronomy, competing in science challenges, building woodworking and electronics projects. Fun off-campus trips will include canoeing down the Fall River and visiting the Oklahoma salt flats as well as going to Laser Quest, the Alley, Ice Skating, Tanganyika, the Sedgwick County Zoo, and All-Star Adventures. Kids often say that great memories are made in this camp, and its one of the best parts of their summer! Each day at camp begins at 9:00 a.m. with a game of capture the flag and ends at 3:00 p.m. with a fun closing activity where the Happy Camper for the day is announced. With all the fun activities that this camp has to offer, its a tremendous value for the price.

We have one primary goal in our camps and that is to prepare you to be suc-cessful as a basketball player. We focus on three areas to make that happen: funda-mentals, attitude, and work ethic. We want every young man who leaves our camp to have a total and complete understanding of what it takes to be successful in the game of basketball. In the past twenty-six years, Coach Fiegel has won five State Championships (1993, 1996, 2007, 2009, and 2010). They were second in 1998 and finished third in 1994 and 2011. Overall his TEAMS have made eleven State Tournament appearances. In 2007 and 2010, he was chosen by the Wichita Eagle as Metro Coach of the Year and All-State Coach of the Year as well. When you think about what camp to choose for your son this summer, ask yourself these questions:1. Do you want a tough and challenging camp for your son?2. Is twenty-six years of summer camp experience important to you?3. Do you want your son to work harder than he has ever worked and have fun while he is doing it?4. Do you, at some point, hope that your son will be a high school player on a great TEAM?If the answer is yes to any of these questions, then this is the camp for you. We are committed to providing a challenging and instructional experience for your son. Every player will receive a basketball report card to evaluate his current skill level and a camp T-shirt. Each session will be limited to thirty campers, so enroll early; sessions fill up quickly, and we are committed to the thirty-camper limit to ensure quality instruction.

    Camp Collegiate Scott HawleyCamp Collegiate is a fast-paced, fun-based learning experience that is meant to make summer days fly by with fun activities. Boys and girls in 3rd through 8th grade spend their days with friends and counselors doing all of the typi-cal camp things: swimming, cooking out on a camp fire, canoe trips, arts and crafts, having treats, horseback riding, games and a lot of not-so-traditional things, like feeding and caring for snakes and hamsters, studying ecosystems and astronomy, competing in science challenges, building woodworking and electronics projects. Fun off-campus trips will include canoeing down the Fall River and visiting the Oklahoma salt flats as well as going to Laser Quest, the Alley, Ice Skating, Tanganyika, the Sedgwick County Zoo, and All-Star Adventures. Kids often say that great memories are made in this camp, and its one of the best parts of their summer! Each day at camp begins at 9:00 a.m. with a game of capture the flag and ends at 3:00 p.m. with a fun closing activity where the Happy Camper for the day is announced. With all the fun activities that this camp has to offer, its a tremendous value for the price. Please call Scott Hawley for further details at 634-0489, ext. 410, or send an email to [email protected].
