Charleston RiverDogs News Release


The Charleston RiverDogs will hold two youth baseball camps at Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park. Session I runs from June 14-16, while Session II operates from July 14-17 with a special hitting clinic held on July 30.

Each session is 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. daily, and is for all children 6-13. The cost is $150 per camp and includes a RiverDogs goodie bag with water bottle, a camp T-shirt and a ticket to the RiverDogs' game for each evening.

"Spending the day with future New York Yankees will create memories and friendships these campers will never forget," said Melissa McCants, the RiverDogs' Director of Special Events.

Participants are divided into separate age groups and have the opportunity to learn and hone their skills in hitting, fielding, pitching, base running, bunting and agility.

In addition to receiving evaluations and progress from the RiverDogs' players and coaches -- who serve as instructors -- campers can get autographs following each day's session and will also take home a photo with a RiverDogs player. At the conclusion of each session, there will be an awards ceremony on the field prior to the first pitch of that night's RiverDogs game.

Players that are expected to serve as instructors include pitcher Ryan Flannery, who made his professional debut, going 2-1 with a 0.86 ERA in 15 games, first baseman Luke Murton, who was recently named SAL player of the week and NYY 11th round draft pick Ray Kruml in addition to a host of others.
