University of Portland basketball summer camps are open for registration and filling up fast. The popular Pilot Day Camp for kids grades 3-9 is scheduled for June 24-28 and offers some of the most entertaining and educational activities for kids, while three Pilot Skills Camps are available for more individualized instruction.
The Pilot Day Camp runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and costs $250 per camper which includes a Nike Pilot Basketball T-Shirt, a Pilot basketball, and a free ticket to a future Portland home game.
