Coach Harvin Council and Vision Basketball Camp

ELGIN, SC (WIS)- Coach Harvin Council has been teaching and mentoring from the sidelines at his Vision Basketball Camp for the last 17 years.

It's not all about athletic drills. Council tries to instill life skills that can be used on and off the court.
