Castle Defense is an action-packed math game. To play, type the answers to activate your archers. Kill the skeletons before they reach safety. Use the number keys on your keyboard and the brain in your head. Good luck!
FCA Offers Camp Opportunities
The Hay Springs FCA Huddle continues to meet each week on Monday’s during the Junior High and High School lunch hour. We are currently working through The Called to Compete Curriculum presented each week by Nebraska coach, Ron Brown. It’s fun to watch the students grow in their passion for the game and their walk of faith.
We have some very important upcoming events and camps. We are again planning to host a fun night sometime in late February or early March and an end of year event in May. I will keep the students posted on the dates for those events. If you are not familiar with these events, we typically invite a CSC athlete to speak, eat some food and play games.
Most importantly, the Hay Springs FCA is willing to pay for any interested student-athlete to attend one of the camps below.
- Distance Running Camp June 11-14 Scottsbluff, NE
- Black Hills Sports Camp June 18-22 Spearfish, SD
(Sports Available: Football, Volleyball, Basketball, Track & Field, Cross Country, Tennis, Golf and Swimming)
Bus transportation is available from Chadron
These camps are high quality camps hosted by Division I and II coaches and athletes. Any parent or student is encouraged to speak with Jason Badje or Jim Varvel in regards to the program or camp. Information can also be found on the Nebraska FCA website at www.nebraskafca.org.
God Bless,
Jim Varvel
