FOR the past 20 years, Patricia ‘Pattie’ Johnson, organiser of the Bahamas’ most outstanding female high school basketball camp, has staged her free-for-all summer basketball camp at the HO Nash Junior High School.

Designed for boys and girls of all high school ages, the camp is geared towards providing instructions for the participants. “The passion and the results that I’ve seen from the players when they go back to school is what keeps me going,” said Johnson about her longevity of what has been one of the longest camps staged in the island nation.

“We’ve been having a lot of success and that’s because we have a number of campers who return every year and there are some of them who are too old, but they come back and help out as well.”
