Kaminski "Scouts" in Rural Mississippi

 

 

August 16, 2010

 

Mississippi RiverKings head coach Kevin "Killer" Kaminski met with area Boys Scouts recently at Camp Currier near Hernando during another in a series of "Sticks Are For Kids" events.

while RiverKings head coach Kevin "Killer" Kaminski helps another Scout

get into a similar set during a RiverKings "Sticks Are For Kids!" clinic at Camp Currier in Hernando on July 15. Kaminski demonstrated the use of safety gear, then refereed scrimmage games in which every Scout got a chance to try his hand at the sport. The activity was just one of many during a week-long Scout camp, which included participation by Scouts from Packs 190 and 186 in Southaven, Pack 376 in Horn Lake, and packs from Batesville, Walls, Olive Branch, Hernando, Strayhorn, Senatobia and Thyatira.
