The Legends of Tennessee organization brings their football camp to Sevier County High School for a football and family weekend. They teach life skills, character and leadership through football. The football camp is a great family experience and this year will include a visit to The Island in Pigeon Forge. Visitwww.legendsoftennessee.orgto sign up to attend the camp.

Jabari Davis and Chris Treece, co-founders of the Legends of Tennessee organization bring their football camp to 12 cities across Tennessee. “Our camp is a great opportunity for kids to learn elite fundamentals taught by Tennessee Volunteer greats!
