    The ‘little’ boys of summer had their fun in the sun recently with a pair of baseball camps put on by area high school coaches.     At Bullitt East, coaches Jeff Bowles and Craig Sharpe had two sessions for three days last week. The week before that, Bullitt Central had a four day camp in the mornings.     In both camps, there was a time for work on fundamentals as well as plenty of fun and games.

 There was plenty of interest last week in a youth volleyball camp at North Bullitt put on by Lady Eagle head coach Ashley Byerley and her players and assistant coaches. The second year coach had 60 young ladies taking part along with a handful of boys. The group got to work on learning the game with drills and fun activities as well as getting to play matches.
