1st day of 1st full week of summer: Not quiet for Chief Sealth!

For starters, the process of moving out of the temporary Chief Sealth International High School campus at Boren, getting ready to occupy the renovated permanent campus in fall, is a big job – we happened onto the band equipment getting packed up. But that’s not the main reason we were at the school:

It’s the first day of the first weeklong session of the 13th annual edition of the popular Chief Sealth Life Skills and Basketball Camp. In that view, everyone’s gathered for the team meeting. Guest coach this week with Coach Colin Slingsby (right) is recent Sealth grad Daniel Davis:

Coach Slingsby noted that Daniel first attended the Sealth camp way back in third grade – and now he’s coaching. Participants – 2nd through 9th grade boys/girls – spend the day in everything from warmups to specific basketball-skill-coaching to drills.

And as the name indicates, it’s more than sports. The printed schedule has the quote of the day: “You have not lived a perfect day, even if you have earned your money, unless you have done something for someone who will never be able to repay you.” For info on the summer’s remaining sessions, check out the brochure (PDF).

    This is a great basketball camp! My grandson Isaiah is currently enrolled . They teach everything from sportsmanship, lifes lessons, basketball skills and respect to others. Very impressive job coach Slingsby and his fine staff of coaches are doing. I highly recommend this camp to any boy or girl looking to have fun and learn more about basketball.

Sorry, comment time is over.
