Mascot Camp 2001


On Monday June 18, 2001, Mascot Consulting hosted it's first training session to help mascot talent get the most out of their characters. The camp took place at L.P. Frans Stadium, home to the Hickory Crawdads the day before the 2001 South Atlantic League All-Star Game. Pictures from the camp!
