Saturday's camp, which took place at the Mockingbird Valley Sports Complex, featured former University of Louisville standout and current Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Eric Wood.
"The chances of them to become an NFL player are probably slim, like everywhere else around the world," Brooks said. "But the chances of them growing up to be a good human being, this is what we're planning on, so that's why we're here."
One hundred boys and girls between the ages of 9-13 from Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kentuckiana, Sunrise Children's Services and Tickets for Kids Charities took part in the camp.
