Got some pics to share of Jackson in Lax Camp.
He's making some great friends and enduring long, but
much loved, days learning and perfecting his Lacrosse skills.

With one of John's UNM Lacrosse player, Michael Mooney's business
savvy and the skills and support of another past player/assistant
coach, Jeff Eichman, John has helped bring forth the 1st ever
Lacrosse camp in the state of New Mexico!!

My hubby, John is having a blast coaching all the kids, whose ages range
from 9-18 years old.
They are all very dedicated and enthusiastic about the game
and learning all they can, and it's exciting to watch them playing
scrimmage games.

Two news stations have shown alot of interest and Ch7 will
be broadcasting about the Lax camp tonight (Thurs) at 10pm.
And Van Tate (and old friend of John's) from CH 13 will be
at the HighLand High School's field broadcasting about the camp
tomorrow(Fri)!! The kids are doing some special scrimmage games
to show off to family and friends.

This is just one of the first steps at bringing organized Lacrosse to the Junior
and High School levels in New Mexico. John organized the University of New
Mexico's Lacrosse team in 1996 and is excited about getting it going in the
High School and Junior High levels. He also would like to open the game
of Lacrosse to the Homeschooling community if there is an interest.

If anyone wants to check out the camp, it's right off Jefferson , just south
of Central, at Highland High School's sport's field. There is parking
right in front of the school, next to the fields. Check it out!
