Camp Rescheduled for August 1
Former Denfeld standout and Minnesota Vikings alumnus CJ Ham has announced that his annual youth football camp will now take place on August 1, after originally being slated for July 18.
The shift comes as a direct response to deteriorating air quality in the region, which prompted Ham and his team to prioritize the well‑being of participants, families, volunteers and staff.
In a statement released on Thursday, Ham underscored that the health and safety of everyone involved is the top priority, noting that the decision was made after careful consultation with local health officials.
Health and Safety Remain Central
Ham’s decision reflects a growing trend among community organizers to adapt events in real time as environmental conditions evolve, reinforcing a commitment to responsible stewardship of youth sports.
