The Norwich Family YMCA annual track camp for youth ages 9-14 began Wednesday afternoon at the Norwich High School track.

The track camp gives area youth the opportunity to learn track and field skills such as improved running form for speed and efficiency, starting blocks, relay hand-offs, hurdles, long jump, high jump and the throws.

There will be about a dozen practices before the Norwich meet June 15.

To register for the track camp go to the front desk of the Norwich YMCA. The practices will be held at the NHS track from 6:30-8 p.m. For more information call the Y at 336-YMCA.
