Key Technology, Local Sponsors Helping Whit Men's Basketball Provide Free Camps

"Together We Can" Basketball Camps

WALLA WALLA, Wash. — Thanks to support from Key Technology and several other local sponsors, the Whitman College men's basketball program is providing a series of "free registration" summer camps for boys ages eight to 14.

Normal registration costs have been waived, leaving only a $20 administrative fee for each of the three camps.

The first of Whitman's "Together We Can" camps, held June 27-30, attracted about three dozen youngsters.

The next two camps are Aug. 11-13 and Aug. 16-18.

All camps take place at Whitman's Sherwood Center. Hours each day are 9 a.m. to noon.

The $20 administrative fee, which helps cover operating costs, includes a free camp t-shirt and free pizza lunch at the end of each daily session.

A camp brochure complete with camp details and registration form is available on the Whitman College men's basketball "Camps & Clinics" webpage.

The camp's local sponsors, in addition to title sponsor Key Technology and the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin, are Les Schwab, Clarette's Restaurant, Community Bank, Red Monkey Downtown Lounge,

Stone Hut Bar and Grill, Total Office Concepts, Bank of Whitman, Jacobi's Cafe, Dream Ride Charters,
