Troy Brown Fantasy Football Camp April 4-5 at Marshall
HUNTINGTON – New York Jets quarterback Chad Pennington and former Philadelphia Eagles long snapper Mike Bartrum will share coaching duties with New England Patriots receiver Troy Brown in the 2008 Troy Brown Fantasy Football Camp April 4-5, at Marshall University.
Brown, Pennington and Bartrum coached in last year’s inaugural fantasy camp, which is a fundraiser for Marshall’s Child Development Academy. The 2008 camp will include time with coaches, team practices, a draft and a flag-football game at Joan C. Edwards Stadium.
The event is of special interest to Brown, a member of three Super Bowl champion New England teams, because of his connection to the area. He played football for the Thundering Herd in the 1991 and 1992 seasons, and still lives in Huntington with his wife, Kim, and their two sons.
“My family has a very strong and special connection with Huntington and Marshall University,” Brown said. “When Kim and I chose to raise our children in Huntington, they enrolled at the Child Development Academy at Marshall University and the academy became a major positive force in their early development.”
The cost of the camp is $1,000 and participants must be at least 23-years-old. All of the money raised goes to the academy. For more information or to register for the Troy Brown Fantasy Football Camp, log on to www.troybrownfantasyfootball.com.
