My boys are in the Lyons kids camp and they have solid rolls. All the kids in the camp have solid rolls, Thanks to Jason.

When kids see other kids out rolling and splashing around having a blast then you will see the twinkle in there eye. Bring your little one by class in Lyons on Tuesday's or Thursday's at 5:00pm to let him watch, and I bet he will be full of questions on the way home.  Jason |
