The 8th Annual Copper Country Youth Football Camp was recently held at the home of the Lakes, Warner Athletic field in Lake Linden. The camp is designed to teach kids in grades 3 - 8, the fundamentals of the game, including offense, defense and aspects of the kicking game. Instructing the participants are the top coaches from around the area. These coaches really keep the kids hopping and so was I, trying to keep up with them for photos. On the brochure, it stated that it was a non-contact camp and all that was necessary to bring were: shorts, t-shirt, cleats (if possible) and a positive attitude. While snapping photos, I saw plenty of positive attitudes and loads of enthusiasm, too. My Grandson was one of the participants (he's the good looking one in the red/blue shorts and navy t-shirt). He said his favorite part was learning about tackling and wrapping his arms around that tackling dummy as he took it to the ground. I almost forgot, he said the pizza on the last day was a pretty good, too.

With football just about on the horizon, here's a little football humor from Andy Griffith:

Oh no!!!Is it football time already!? A good sign that cool weather is in sight...after this horrible hot summer. I don't have any future players in our family. Youngest grandson is a freshman this year. But baseball and basketball is his interest. And the oldest greatgrandson is only 5. It's always more fun and interesting when you have connection with the team. Good luck Alex.

Do I miss playing football? Oh Yea. Does my left knee still hurt from a chop block? Oh yea. Am I glad I had daughters so I didn't have to relive my past football glories and failures through them? Absolutlely. Packers going to win the Super Bowl. YUP!
