    My youngest grandson is now in High School...eeeek!! He was chosen to be one of the Mascots this year so he went to mascot camp back in the summer and now gets to wear the Eagle costume at sports events. There are a couple other kids who wear the costume too. They all made this video for the beginning of school, sometimes it's my grandson in the costume, sometimes not. But near the end when Eddie opens one of the lockers, the kid inside the locker is ours and at the end the kid running after the mascot is him again.

    I enjoyed the video Toni. Can you ask your grandson if it gets warm in the costume? Also what do they learn in mascot school?

    I liked the video too... I have never heard of a mascot camp before and that makes them aware of how important it is to represent the school. It had me chuckling at times. Thanks for sharing...

    I enjoyed the cute video. I was wondering about how hot the costume was also so was glad to hear that it isn't. Looks like your grandson is having a lot of fun.

    I was unaware that such a camp existed, but I can see the importance of it. I hope your grandson has a great time this year.
