Drayson Center offers summer sports camps for kids

Young participants in the 2016 LA Clippers Basketball Camp celebrated their completion of a busy week of basketball skills and fun.

For many parents, it doesn’t take long to hear the words “I’m bored” just a few days after school ends. All of the excitement of the end of the school year can quickly vanish for kids. 

That’s where Loma Linda University Drayson Center can help. Summer sports camps are the perfect way to keep kids busy during the day and sleeping well at night. Drayson Center will host four sport camps this summer, in addition to its summer swim programs.

“Keeping your kids active this summer is a major priority at Drayson Center,” said Donald Sease, MBA, director. “We welcome the chance to offer them great experiences.” 

LA Galaxy Soccer Camp

The LA Galaxy, Los Angeles’ major league soccer team, will hold a soccer camp at Drayson Center, June 12-16, for boys and girls ages 6 to 16. The camp will go from 8 a.m. to noon and will include coaching by LA Galaxy coaches, a sackpack and water bottle with logos, as well as T-shirts, a certificate of completion and a ticket to a Galaxy home match. 

Engineering with Lego Camps

Lego blocks will dominate the following week, as well as two weeks in July.

During the week of June 19-23, children ages 5-6 will enjoy “Mine, Craft, Build Adventure Game with Lego Materials” from 9 a.m. to noon. Children ages 7-12 will take part in “Mine, Craft, Build Survival Game with Lego Materials” from 1-4 p.m.

July 17-21, children ages 5-6 will master “Jedi Engineering with Lego Materials” from 9 a.m. to noon, while children ages 7-12 will work on “Jedi Masters Engineering with Lego Materials” from 1-4 p.m. 

A third week of Legos will take place July 24-28. Children ages 5-6 will learn “Ninjago Engineering with Lego Materials” from 9 a.m. to noon, while the older children ages 7-12 will experience “Ninjago Masters Engineering with Lego Materials” from 1-4 p.m.

Sportball Multi-sport Camp

Children ages 4.5-9 will want to keep their ball skills for various sports sharp over the summer. The Sportball Multi-sport Camp, July 24-28, will refine, rehearse and repeat with plenty of skill-focused play, creative exploration and fun.

LA Clippers Basketball Camp

From July 31 to August 4, coaches from the LA Clippers will be on hand to work with children ages 6-14 at all skill levels. The youth basketball camp will be held from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. Participants will receive an LA Clippers jersey and more.
