Day #3 The Vegas Camp

Day #3 was a repeat of the day before. Campers got personal one-on-one time with Lewis, Fink, Chapman, Peixoto, and Gabossi (personal trainer); meanwhile, Ben Thum continued his filming. Souvenir handball gloves were passed out to all participants (Owen Gloves) as Dave Chapman and Co. pulled out the red carpet for all who attended!!!


Owen Glove souvenir, as provided by Tom Kopp and Dave Chapman for each camper!


Peixoto offers up a Q & A session during lunch. Very productive for those in attendance!


Gabossi (Springfield, MO) demonstrates to the group proper training tips for core muscle groups.

Day #3 concluded with a Calcutta-style handball draw at one of the finest Italian Restaurants in Vegas. Chapman emcee's this event and seeds the final draw. Over $1500 dollars were raised as each camper bets on a handicap-driven draw sheet.


Chapman assigns handicap points to all participants. USHA Qualifier, Abe Montijo sells for $175, but gets nailed with a -9 handicap. Yikes!

Chapman plays a lil trick on Lewis by claiming that it is his birthday. All restaurant employees stop what they are doing to sing "happy birthday." Lewis' official birthday is in September.

Day #3 ends with a $1500 Calcutta tourney (scheduled for Sunday) and a $2000 pro doubles prize purse established (Peixoto/Fink vs Chapman/Vincent). Campers are amazed at the fine attention to detail Chapman and Co are putting into this camp!
