This year’s event took place at the Webb Field at Martin Luther King Recreation Complex in Ocala, Florida on July 21, 2018.
The “Make It Happen” Football Camp is a free camp for youth, ages 8-18 years of age. The football camp is organized by 11 year NFL veteran, Drayton Florence and the Drayton Florence Foundation.
Mr. Florence coaches and mentors these scholar athletes, along with the help of his camp staff. In addition to teaching fundamental football skills, the camp is designed to impart the message of lifeskills: hard work, discipline, goal-setting, dedication, sportsmanship and teamwork.
This annual event is an exciting opportunity to receive instructions on how to become better in the sport of football from someone who has played at its highest level for over a decade.
We look forward to seeing you at the 15th annual “Make it Happen” in 2019.
Blessings to all.
Jacksonville Florida is home to one of the most significant military veteran populations in the United States of America.
