If you can share something with oth- ers that makes them better, it’s good for everyone.” Over the course of last week- end, 26 participants ages 7 to 17 from Florence as well as North Bend, Reedsport, Waldport and as far away as Klammath Falls got a chance to bring their wrestling to another level thanks to the Bressers. “Ron has coached 60 wrestlers who have gone on to receive full-ride scholarships at top colleges,” said Wartnik. “Having wrestlers and coaches here from different places they take that knowledge and share it with others. “We need that kind of thing happening in wrestling pro- grams along the coast.” While wrestling programs in the valley have continued to grow, high school programs along the coast have dwindled in comparison, with several his- torically strong wrestling pro- grams either down to a skeleton roster or with none at all. “That’s why we wanted to establish this opportunity and invite other coastal programs here,” said Wartnik. “It’s a chance to help revitalize the sport in this region.” Though Bresser, whose fam- ily camped at nearby Honeyman State Park for the weekend, offered his instruc- tion for free, there were still costs involved. To help cover them, Wartnik got support from W.G. Peterson Woodworking, Inc., Sea Lion Caves, Sand Dunes Frontier/Torex ATV Rentals, Fred Meyer and Dr. Bob Estill/ Chevron Corp. “They are a part of our wrestling community as well,” said Wartnik. “We are so thank- ful for their support, along with our school’s culinary teacher, Kyle Lewis, who helped pre- pare meals for campers and shopped for all the groceries it took to feed everyone.” Bresser said his experience was such a positive one that he is not only talking with Wartnik about another camp next sum- mer, but a return as early as this October for a follow-up camp. “We saw so much growth over the course of this camp,” said Wartnik. “Not just in terms of skills development, but also personal growth and confi- dence. “We’d like to double our numbers next year and keep sharing that knowledge and love of the sport.” XC More information and a ten- tative schedule will be avail- able there.
