Basketball Camp For Students From Small Towns

we believe basketball camp

A free four day basketball camp for students from small towns is beginning on Monday.

We Believe Basketball Camp is for junior and senior high school students from DeValls Bluff, Hazen, and Biscoe to learn basketball skills as well as spend time with working people who came from small towns.

Camp director, JP Arnold, said the camp is for students who can’t afford going to a summer camp.

“That’s just a really magical moment for the students to see ‘hey, this person was here 15, 20 years ago. And now, they’re doing something with their live. And that’s something that possibly they can visualize and see for themselves that ‘I can become a doctor, a teacher, a lawyer, a military professional,” said Arnold.

Camp provides free jerseys, shorts, shoes, and lunch for students.

Arnold says students can show up at Hazen School Gym on Monday at 8am.
