Third through eighth grade students at St. Charles Borromeo School in Destrehan recently enjoyed the New Orleans Saints Jr. Gatorade Training Camp during two separate sessions.

Representatives from the Saints organization were on location to discuss healthy eating habits, Play 60, education, and Saints history with the students. During the sessions, students were given the opportunity to answer questions on the discussion given by the Saints personnel to win jerseys and gloves worn by Saints players, Saints T-shirts, and decals. During the hour session the students participated in football drills for passing, receiving, tackling and a high jump test. Students received a Saints Jr. Gatorade Training Camp shirt courtesy of Whitney Bank for their participation along with Saints tattoo and Sean Payton trading cards from the New Orleans Saints Organization.
