The Museum & Learning Center is a hotbed of summer camp fun and learning.
Each year, our baseball and softball camps for boys and girls ages 8-12 on the nearby Montclair State playing fields have proven to be fun-filled weeks of instruction and activities under the supervision of top-notch instructors.
Each camper will receive personalized instruction from the coaching staff. Through specialized stations and game competition, the camps focus on fun and fundamentals – while providing instruction in proper hitting, bunting, pitching, baserunning, fielding, position play and more.
For optimal learning, campers will be split into beginning and advanced groups based on skill level. Campers are provided refreshments and lunch each day, and will also receive a camp certificate and t-shirt for attending.
The Museum’s baseball camp is directed by Paul Reddick, a former scout for the Pittsburgh Pirates and one of the nation’s leading youth baseball experts (www.paulreddickbaseball.com). Paul also conducts numerous sportsmanship and anti-bullying programs for school groups at the Museum.
The Museum’s softball camp is directed by Leslie Korkgy-Valenti, a former college pitcher, teacher and one of the top youth softball instructors in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Leslie is also co-director of several elite instruction camps (www.softballstarz.com).
Another highly popular summer camp at the Museum is the annual Bruce Beck and Ian Eagle Sports Broadcasting Camp (www.sportsbroadcastingcamp.com), directed by two of New York’s most experienced sports broadcasters.
