The goal of FUNDAMENTALS is to provide quality sports education to young children. At FUNDAMENTALS, children spend most of the day learning the skills and concepts of a variety of sports and games. However, it is the sports curriculum "off the field" that sets FUNDAMENTALS apart from other sports day camps. Informal discussions on sports current events, character building, sportsmanship and choosing role models are held daily. FUNDAMENTALS teaches children the values of teamwork and commitment which are the essential elements of success in sports, as well as in life. Learning these lessons in a friendly, encouraging atmosphere through sports and games makes learning them FUN. This is what sports should be about! This is what FUNDAMENTALS SPORTS CAMP is about!

Children experience what its like to live on a farm. They receive an animal that they are responsible to take care of for the week. Every day, the kids have chores on the farm and adventures involving playing games like soccer, kickball, basketball, water wars. The last day, they have a competition with their animals and are teamed up with other campers for relay races. Space is limited (25 campers a session). Email or call for more information.

We are famous for having the lowest counselor to camper ration of any skate camp out there, specialize in small groups, and every camper skates away with new skills. We promise your time at our skate camp will be unbelievable.

Small Empire Skate Camp also has extended care, showcase and prizes at the end of each week, a special optional lunch plan, and amazing counselors.

Our Camp is a fun self esteem building camp. We have various field trips weekly. We use martial arts basics to help to develop well rounded kids in a fun, exciting and safe environment.

TESTIMONIALS: SOME WORDS OF MY STUDENT-ATHLETES and THEIR PARENTS

**Erik, Thanks so much for coaching Peter! He had reached his maximum using the throwing style he had, and after only six lessons he started to get used to the new style, embrace it, and boy did it work! His championship throw at the NEPSTA meet capped off a difficult transition that initially cost him distance and then gave him the foundation to become the best thrower in the New England Prep Schools. Your constant care for him and taking the time to speak with him when he had questions was a great help. We're looking forward to seeing what he can do in the Ivy League next year! Thanks again for the enjoyable times, it's an incredible experience. Best regards, David and Leslie Holst-Grubbe – David and Leslie Holst-Grubbe - Parents of Peter Holst-Grubbe - Boys Javelin Thrower, Jr., Class of ’08, Avon Old Farms High School – Avon, Connecticut (>Columbia University, Class of 2012)

**Let's see... from the beginning of our practicing it has been an all around new experience. Emotionally, mentally, and physically I have changed and matured as a javelin thrower and a person throughout my experience (so far). Erik is not only the best javelin thrower I have ever seen but he is passionate and patient and utmost believes in what the javelin symbolizes. Whoever begins to practice with Erik will know how special he truly is and gifted in this unique art. I would gladly recommend any person passionate in javelin and wants to learn how to use their utmost potential while throwing the javelin and using these new learned techniques in every day life. His coaching is outstanding and you will never forget what you learn - Blair Hassell - Girls Javelin Thrower, Jr., Class of '08, Freehold Boro High School (>Fordham University, Class of 2012)

**A Parent's Perspective…My son Pat has been receiving one on one javelin coaching sessions with Erik for almost a year now. We are very pleased with Pat's progress and plan on continuing these coaching sessions. Erik is very professional in his coaching and has a unique ability to convey his knowledge of the correct skills involved in throwing the javelin. Pat has not only gained in his ability to throw the javelin with correct form, but has also learned a lot of the intricate details involved in the body's movements and positions while throwing. Erik is always patient, supportive and has this unique ability to convey to his student athlete that he truly cares and knows how they are feeling about themselves and their progress at any given point. Because of all that is involved in the learning of this sport, I wanted my son to work with someone who had personally competed in the javelin, someone with first hand knowledge. Erik brings to the sessions all this personal experience. My son always comes away from his training sessions with a better understanding and ability. - Kevin O'Neill, Parent of Pat O'Neill, Boys Javelin Thrower, Jr., West Morris Central High School -

**Erik Bernstein is a rare combination of coach and mentor. He brings great expertise to the table. That skill coupled with his love of the sport and his positive attitude makes him a rare find. I have seen my son grow under Erik's care. My son and I could not ask for a better Javelin coach and mentor. - Vernay Salas, Parent of Tony Salas, Boys Javelin Thrower, Sophomore, Middletown High School South -
