I thought that this may be a potential story.
There is a group from California who operates wrestling camps around the country in the summer months for elementary and high school students. The cost is normally over $200 per student. However, when they heard about the economy of Elkhart county they have offered to hold the camp for free. They are estimating that there may be up to 1,000 students attend. The camp is the week of June 22nd at Jimtown High School. If you are interested in more information you can contact my husband,Tony Holt at 574-215-9728, he is helping to organize it from the local level.— kholt
