Christian County YMCA Little Dribblers Perform at Halftime Show

The Christian County YMCA had one of their programs on display in front of the community during the halftime show at the Taylorville versus Pana game last week. The Little Dribblers took to Dolph Stanley court to show off their newly learned basketball skills.


The Little Dribblers is in its first year as a program for the YMCA and the new Program Coordinator, Tanner Jones lead the effort to secure volunteer coaches and the location for the performance. Bruce Blanshan, Director of the CC YMCA says he looks forward to continuing the three-day basketball camps in the future.

 


With over 1,000 people attending the Battle of Route 29 game, Blanshan said some of the kiddos were a bit nervous showcasing their skills.

 


Blanshan was fond of the combination of athletic activity for the kids and engagement with the community through the Little Dribblers Program, which Blanshan and the CC YMCA plan to continue.
