Fans who were listening to the broadcast of last night’s Danville Dans Baseball game may have noticed it was not the usual broadcasters. Instead, kids from this week’s Sports Media Camp for Kids at Danville Area Community College called the game.
The kids have been learning about sports writing and broadcasting and have heard from some special guest speakers. On Wednesday they heard from Joe Wasser, who has been an audio producer for the Olympics, NBA, NFL and Major League Baseball. On Friday they will hear from retired CBS Radio Executive Scott Herman.

The Sports Media Camp is sponsored by WDAN Radio and is just one of the fun summer camps for kids occurring at Danville Area Community College.
On Saturday, kids from the Sports Media Camp will be guests on WDAN’s Saturday Morning Sports Talk Show from 8:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. [**Note: You can click on the photos to enlarge them.]
