Government’s Summer Camp Programme culminated last Friday at the National Stadium with the second National Summer Camp Games.Minister of Youth, Family and Sport Stephen Lashley said: “These games afford us an opportunity to compete and, certainly . . . out of these games we will see some aspiring athletes. The games showcase the talents and skills of the campers and, therefore, highlighting sports as part of the national camp programme is in line with our key objectives.” The games were the culmination of a series of competitions held across four zones and included boys’ and girls’ 50, 80, 100, 200, 400 and 800 metre races, lime and spoon, balloon toss and potato-sack races.
