Jeffrey Saul, 16, of Clovis, will be attending the Amputee Coalition of America's Paddy Rossbach Youth Camp on July 21-25 in Clarksville, Ohio as a leader-in-training. Jeffrey was granted a scholarship and will attend the camp with 100 other campers from throughout the United States who have limb loss or limb difference.

The five-day summer camp, for children ages 10-17, offers a full range of activities that include fishing, swimming and ziplining. The camp inspires campers to take on new challenges, be independent, test themselves and build new friendships.

Jeffrey attends Buchanan High School.
