Spivey Hall’s Fifth Annual
Summer Music Camp Starts June 10
The Clayton State Department of
Athletics will kick-off its 2013 summer
athletic camp schedule in the first week of
June.
The first series of camps will begin the
week of June 3-7 and all camps are held
on the campus of Clayton State
University. The department offers athletic
camps for boys and girls in the following
sports: soccer, basketball, tennis and
speed development.
The week-long camps are offered to youth
ages six-to-17 years-old and run from 9
a.m. to 4 p.m. Half-day camps are also
available either in the morning or in the
afternoon. Campers may also choose to
combine two different half-day camps if
they wish.
Cost of the full-day camp is $125 and for
a half-day is $65. To register online or
print out a registration form, please visit
Clayton State Athletics Summer Camps.
Clayton State’s athletic camps are
designed to provide the highest quality
instruction in a safe, fun, and socially-
enriching environment, and to help
campers’ dreams be made real. The pri-
mary goal is for all campers to enjoy
themselves while also learning and
improving their skills.
Daily activities are led by Clayton State
head coaches and focus on character
building aspects of each individual sport,
including self-esteem, discipline and
responsibility. The camps combine small
group instruction as well as game play to
ensure development of fundamental skills
and game knowledge.

State Athletic Department at (678) 466-
