"We had 875 kids in boys basketball, 279 kids in football, and then 231 in girls basketball, 171 in baseball, so those are our big ones," Eggerding said. Several new camps were also introduced, including basketball shooting and skills camps, bowling and football quarterbacks and receivers camp. This past season, a total of 85 age-group camps, as well as 15 learn-to-swim camps, ran within 24 sports and recreation programs, including baseball, basketball, cooking, bowling, running and sewing. "We even have a swimming program called babies and beyond it's the mother or father and baby together in the pool, so it's for the community as well." "It's all ages," he said of the programs. On top of that, 133 LT students were employed as coaches or camp counselors, Eggerding said. This year's summer program, which took place between June 6 and July 15, featured both academics and activities for ages pre-kindergarten to adult with more than 6,000 registration requests among all programs, according to the 2016 summer program report. "It's really good leadership and presents opportunities for kids, too." "It's a broad community effort, and even our own students are able to get some work out of it, whether it's helping kids swimming or helping a younger age soccer camp or basketball camp," said Scott Eggerding, director of curriculum and instruction for High School District 204. Several students took part in being camp counselors, and residents participated in a number of programs. Thanks to new programs in both academics and recreation this past season, Lyons Township High School had successful 2016 summer program not only from a financial standpoint but also from community involvement, district officials said.
