This is a great camp and it’s local in Gainesville. Dalton Flint and Nick Patrick attended the Beginner’s Camp last year and they really learned a lot. But most importantly… they had the most fun ever, it was the time of there life for both kids. Anytime you can associate fun for the kids with wrestling it is a win-win. The location is close enough where you can commute or you can let child stay the nights. All info attached below. If anyone interested, let me know.
