All Sports Day Camp
This summer, Longwood University is once again offering an all sports program for those entering K-6. The camp is designed so that children can sample a number of different sports through the instruction of varsity coaches and student athletes. They will exÂperience the fun of learning to play sports in a safe environment and practice new ways of moving and controlling their bodies.
This year, every camper who registers for All Sports camp will also become a member of the Lancer KidsClub and enjoy all the benefits throughout the sports season.
