Local News BriefsDeadline July 13 to register for R.E.A.L. youth camp The Marshall County Sheriff’s Department will conduct a summer camp July 23-27 for youth grades 5-9 at the Eddie Lee Smith Jr. Multi-Purpose Building in Holly Springs. Camp begins at 8 a.m. and is out at noon each day. The camp will accept 20 students, according to deputy Tamara Jeffries. The camp is free but because of limited space, only one child per family may participate, Jeffries said. Parents are responsible for their child’s transportation to and from camp. Snacks will be provided. “It is imperative that parents arrive with the child on time and pick them up promptly each day,” Jeffries said. Camp topics include Responsibility, Esteem, Ambition, Leadership (R.E.A.L.). The fifth day of camp will be given to fun, a cookout and free T-shirts. Applications for camp can be picked up at the sheriff’s department located at 819 West Street, Holly Springs. Deadline for application is July 13. For further information, call Jeffries or deputy Cathy Elliott at 662-252-1311.
