The Sulphur Springs Wildcat baseball camp concluded Friday, boasting a solid number of attendees for the two sessions. Pictured above are the 18 campers for the first-fourth grade session of the camp. Courtesy/Sulphur Springs Athletics

Approximately 25 campers attended the fifth-ninth grade session of the camp. Campers went over hitting and fielding drills designed to enhance their baseball skills. The next set of camps at SSISD will be girls and boys basketball camp and softball camp. All three camps are next week; the basketball camps will be at the SSHS Gymnasium; the softball camp will be inside the multipurpose building.
