Thanks to camp sponsors

Editor:

This year was the 22nd consecutive year for the Matt Light Football Camp. The camp is a free, two-day camp for 8 to 14-year-old youths from Greenville, Darke County, and the surrounding area (a record 213 campers attended). This football camp is made possible through the generous financial support of individuals and many local businesses. I would like to restate that many businesses and individuals from Greenville and Darke County have made generous contributions for many years to perpetuate the unique camp.

The true meaning of “giving back” is demonstrated by the good businesses, businessmen, and businesswomen of Greenville and Darke County supporting the unique concept of a free football camp. I would like to encourage area residents to patronize and to thank the list of businesses and individuals listed below, when the opportunity arises.

Again, this year we were lucky enough to have Matt Light in attendance for both days of camp. Matt spoke to the kids on several occasions and helped with the coaching. As a bonus, Matt invited two current Purdue University starting offensive linemen to work the camp this year. Also, Greenville Green Wave and now University of Cincinnati Linebacker, Bryce Jenkinson attended the camp and spoke to the group.
