Jelani stays another week.

After Groton and all the camping gear was stored. Jelani was to stay an extra week to attend Rutland Rec basketball camp. For the next week we headed off to camp at the Keefe Gym every morning at 9am until 3pm. This young man everyday got up and made his bed, got cleaned up without any prompting from us. At night when it was time for bed he shut off the tv and the lights with out any word of complaint. One would only hope their kids turned out as polite and thoughtful as Jelani. Each morning we packed up his lunch and off we went. At camp each day was another skill. defense, offense, shooting, ball handling and games. On Friday the last day of camp, Jelani was surprised to be picked up by his dad Mark

In the afternoons Jelani spent time at our friends pool in Pittsford and playing with his god dog Lola. Lola loved having someone to play with, being chased around and someone to chase as well.
