Kudos to Baldwin Park and the NFL

School's out, the kids are bugging, so now what? I'll tell you what, the NFL's junior player development camp is coming to Baldwin Park High School. And here's the best part: The camp is completely free for kids ages 12-14.
Registration is on Saturday at Baldwin Park HS at 2 p.m., and the camp runs Monday-Saturday, 5-7 p.m., at Baldwin Park's beautiful facility.
The kids will be under the direction of Baldwin Park coach James Heggins and his coaching staff, but through the NFL, everything is paid for. The kids will take home a free bag, jersey and a pair of shorts. You can't beat it, what an opportunity.
"This is something the NFL does a lot on the East coast and Pete Smolin at Cantwell Sacred Heart has been involved with it for a while," Heggins said. "When I heard about it I kept bugging the NFL people and we got it done. It's a great chance for us to teach these kids, give back to the community and it won't cost their parents a thing."

That's what we do in the hood, we give back
