Get ready to serve, pass, set, attack, block and dig as Queen Anne’s County Parks and Recreation launches two Volleyball Camps this August.

In the first Volleyball Camp, specifically for kids ages 9 to 13, campers will develop an understanding of the concepts, principles and mechanics involved in volleyball. They will learn the basic movements in passing, serving, and footwork for hitting. Each day camp will end with fun mini-games that will challenge them with the skills learned that day. All participants will receive a camp T-shirt. This camp will be held at Queen Anne’s County High School, Monday – Friday, August 3 – August 7, 2009 from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. It costs $90 and the program number to register is 541001.
