What is Camp Meadowlark?
Learning, camaraderie, improvement, Fun, Fun, Fun! Camp Meadowlark,
is a boys and girls basketball camp and clinic, founded by Meadowlark Lemon,
the focal point of the Harlem Globetrotters for 24 years. Meadowlark has
entertained millions of fans young and old, all
over the world. He is a man who loves kids and has put together a complete teaching
program to teach youngsters the important skills and fundamentals of basketball. In his camps,
Meadowlark will emphasize four attributes of
basketball: physical, psychological, social and spiritual.
Physical: Camp Meadowlark is designed to show
the importance of physical condition as a key
factor in the longevity of Meadowlark Lemon's
career, the difference between an average player
and one of the legends of the game.
Psychological: Applying the mental parts of the game to every day life to
handle pressure, to set goals, to strengthen moral character.
Social: To be able to interact with players and
individuals from all other walks of life, regardless
of gender, race, color or creed.
Spiritual: To give God glory for all our talents and gifts.
