We spend a lot of time talking about values and character. It's not only fundamentals of basketball. We try to help kids make right decisions. We can keep our eyes on them and see how they progress over the years. A lot of kids have spent 10 years at Bethel.
Basketball is just part of the summer at the school.
Nancy Snell of Bethel's athletic office says there are usually two, three or four camps on campus each week from June 7 to Aug. 27, including softball, track and field, soccer and cheerleading. I have one that comes from Paris. We have an elite basketball camp for boys 13 and older. YMCA Director Kirby Falkenberg says about 200 come to sports and skills classes at the Y every day. Some come for a week, some all summer.
