Blackbeard Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Fredonia camp was awesome. I was in my early teens. We’d help bills move into their dorms by carrying their bags. It was awesome. Much much less security back then. Very special memories as a kid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teef Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 this is pretty much what camp is for us too. we're going on thursday with the kids, and i'm sure it will consist of eating junk, watching random guys practice up close, getting some merch, then complaining that it's too hot. throw on the $25 it costs to park across the street, and it's the perfect day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking about taking my kid one day. Do kids like the whole day or just a bit and then want to go home because of the heat or they're bored?

muppy Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 of course I love this story. It involves his kids and football TOGETHER in one fabulous package. I think it's awesome. I never ever got to take my kids to any football camps. Maybe they'd both like football if I had? This is a major memory for yours As it stands now my kids like the bills because it's an excuse to party with Mom. lol That's actually good enough for me 🙂 GO BILLS! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do kids like the whole day or just a bit and then want to go home because of the heat or their bored? it's really not an entire day. the practice is from 9:45 to 11:45, and we get there around 9. i think the people that get the most out of camp are the adults that get there early to get seats in the stands. we never even bother to try. my kids do like to go on the opposite side of the field where they can sit up against a fence and watch. they can see the players clearly and there's enough rotation to make it interesting. towards the end of it they've definitely had enough. staring at random men's junk is just a bonus for me.

Depends on the kids and how old, I would say one of my fav things about this is seeing how excited the kids get. Most of the time it looks like the players get a big kick out of interacting with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time it looks like the players get a big kick out of interacting with them. I was surprised at the number of very small kids (toddlers and babies). Those kids were struggling. my kids are 9, 10, And 13. One of them had some issues with the heat at times, but otherwise all of them really enjoyed it. I have to think ages 8-12 is the sweet spot.

Probably, course when I was there it wasnt evil hot and humid, I can imagine it being tough for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
