It didn't start out too well. Iffy day, a lot of sprinkles and some coldness, and then Stein's taxi driver didn't know his way to the beach.

Still had a great turnout, almost 40 kids and the sprinkling rain let up for a few hours. We had some ultra young ones.

A lot of enthusiasm, a lot of fun and three hours later, the camp was a done deal. Kids were truly inspired!

Not since Canadians Sarah Pavan stopped by or the days of John Child and Mark Heese have we had volleyball OLYMPIANS here! ... and to have one helping grow the sport was huge!

Thanks to USA volleyball and Stein for coming out! ...and also thanks to NOVA and the grizzled beach veterans & kind enthusiasts who lent a free hand!
