My son is spending his off-season to run a basketball camp in our great hometown of Slidell, LA. I used to work in daycare there, but once my son started to play at Duke, I got a job at National Capital Management. My son wants to help kids with their basketball game, and Duke fans are more than welcome (No Tarholes please).

My son has also learned from the great Coach K to give to Charity. Please let me know if you're interested in attending and I will pass a note on to my son.
