March to the Mill this summer!

Registration is underway for the fourth annual March to the Mill summer sports

camp.

“The camp has been such a success in so many ways, we all wanted to run it another

year,” said executive director Toni Marsh. “It’s an all-volunteer camp and it takes a

lot of people working together to pull it off, but it’s worth it.”

The camp allows elementary and middle school kids to play a variety of sports with

Watkins Mill High School coaches and athletes. The campers do a different sport

everyday – sports and activities include football, baseball, lacrosse, soccer field

hockey, basketball, cheer, wrestling, poms, drama, and drum line. “It’s a great way

for kids to explore activities they might never have tried,” said camp director Lydia

Leecost. “They discover hidden talents they never knew they had.”

The camp is also a perfect way for kids to get comfortable with the high school.

“Some kids have been going to this camp for four years now,” said Sabrina Murray,

camp co-director. “By the time they come to Watkins Mill they know everybody,

they know their way around campus, they know the coaches, they know

upperclassmen. They feel confident and ready for high school.”

March to the Mill runs June 15 - 19 and 22 - 26, 10:30 AM through 3:30 PM. Cost is

$99 per session or $189 for both sessions.

Every camper gets a free tee shirt and pinnie and free admission with a paying adult

to select Watkins Mill football games and other sporting events. A limited number of

scholarships are available. Those interested in camp scholarships should contact

their school principals.
