REDMOND, OR -- Summer brings several sports camps options for local kids. One upcoming camp features instruction from a local athlete now in the big leagues.

Maarty Leunen grew up in Redmond, where he was a star basketball player. He took his talents to the University of Oregon and is now playing pro hoops in Europe. In the off-season, Leunen conducts hoop camps for local youngsters. "Redmond has been so good to me, and I want to continue to do my part to help the youth of Redmond and the Central Oregon area," Leunen tells KBND News. "This is a good way for me because I’m a kid that’s from Redmond, went to high school in Redmond, but then has gone on to play college basketball at a high level and on to play professional basketball."
