While Wilderness Orientation takes most of the spotlight this week, Proctor's annual preseason Sports Camp welcomes fall athletic teams for a four day, intensive pre-season camp. With the goal of knocking off the summer's rust, establishing a baseline of fitness, team bonding, and installing offensive and defensive concepts, Sports Camp is a high school athlete's dream come true.
This year’s Sports Camp has been dominated by record-high temperatures that have prevented afternoon sessions from taking place. Nonetheless, coaches, athletes, and our amazing Athletic Trainers Kelly Griffin-Brown and Chris Jones ‘04 have made the best of the week.
