Organizers of the Dexter Youth Football Camp announced today the details of the upcoming football camp here in Dexter.  The three day event will begin on Monday, July 16 and run for three nights until Wednesday, July 18.  Each night, the event will begin at 6 p.m. and will end at 8:16  each night.

With fall sports season just a little over 60 days away, excitement is building for all the local football leagues that exist in the Dexter area.  Of course, the Bearcat's football season is on everyone's mind as the 'Cats rebuild from an incredible 2011 season.  In addition, the Dexter Park and Recreation department hosts a long running little league football program.  The addition of the youth flag football program the past two years has also allowed the grade school age youth to become involved with this great sport.

The intentions of the organizers is to offer an event providing the opportunity for 3rd through 6th graders to enjoy a summer football camp.  Complete with many local coaches, college and high school athletes , the young players will perform various drills and learn appropriate techniques used by football players.

Registration fee for this three-day camp will be $20 per athlete.  Each camper will receive an event t-shirt along with three nights of instruction and football fun.
