Newton Summer Running Camp

Last year NN alumni Tom Davis and Jess Barton held a one-week running camp for Newton kids. Tom and Jess have expanded the camp this summer and will be offering three one-week sessions from the camp's new home at the Hyde Recreation Center in Newton Highlands.

Here's info from their web site:

Newton Summer Running Camp - a camp for Boys and Girls, ages 8 to 14.

Camp will run Monday through Friday from 9am to 3pm. The cost is $225/week.*

Week 1 is July 27th to July 31st
Week 2 is August 3rd to August 7th
Week 3 is August 10th to August 14th

Be sure to sign-up quickly as camp is limited to 30 campers/week, with registration filling quickly in 2008!

The Newton Summer Running Camp is in its second year. Last year's camp was a great success with our campers learning a great deal about the sport while having a lot of fun. The main goal of camp is to have the campers gain knowledge about how it is fun to be active while introducing the campers to the sport of track and field. All different skill levels are encouraged to attend, from beginner to elite! It does not matter if your child has never run in a race or participated on a track team, everyone is welcome and everyone will have fun while developing overall athletic skills. Likewise, if your child does have experience in the sport, this is great and we will work with him or her to advance their knowledge and ability.

*If you sign-up for more than one week, the cost is $200/week. If you have financial hardship, please don't hesitate to contact us directly as we will work something out.
