Our Youth Basketball Camp is officially underway at the West Monroe Community Center, where young athletes are learning from former NBA player Kenny Natt while developing confidence, discipline, and teamwork.

This camp is about so much more than basketball. Throughout the week, participants are taking part in basketball skill development and agility training, health and wellness sessions led by the Children’s Coalition for Northeast Louisiana, and life skills workshops presented by Kount Teens 2 Mentors Organization—giving them valuable tools that will serve them both on the court and in everyday life.

A huge thank you to all of our partners, coaches, and volunteers for investing in the next generation. We’re excited to see these young athletes continue to learn, grow, and have fun this week! 🏀💪💜

This summer camp was truly amazing! The students began with the Pledge of Allegiance, and throughout the camp, they engaged in activities focused on English Language Arts, Math, and plenty of STEM exploration. They enjoyed special visits from the Children’s Museum, where they participated in science-based lessons, and went on field trips to the Monroe Regional Airport, Chennault Aviation, the Biedenharn Museum, and the American Legion Hall.

The students also met with representatives from the West Monroe Fire Department and the Corps of Engineers, learning about water safety in the process. Through the Turning Pages program, they made significant progress in closing literacy gaps. Additionally, they explored themes of character and citizenship through Teach One to Lead One, Scouting America, and various classroom lessons.

Thanks to donations from Atmos Energy and United Way, the campers received literacy kits that will help foster a love of reading and expand their home libraries. The camp concluded with celebrations that included Coke floats, snow cones, and cake in honor of America’s 250th anniversary.
