The summer break just started, but instead of relaxing and hanging out at the mall, many children are back at school, working hard and getting in shape for fall.

Classes may be out for the summer, but a lot of Montgomery County schools are offering organized strength, exercise, weight training and sports camps over the summer months for seventh-graders through seniors in high school.

Were starting the kids off with a mile run and then move on to conditioning exercises, said John Cicherski, a football coach at Peet Junior High. We teach them about weigh training and do some light drills all without pads, helmets or contact.

More than 50 seventh- and eighth-grade students showed up for the first summer weight training and conditioning program offered at Peet Monday morning. The supervised sessions are free for incoming and returning students, although participants must be cleared by a physicians examination before they are allowed to participate.

Its getting warm outside, acknowledged Cicherski, so we have lots of breaks and lots of water.

Peet, like many schools, makes its athletic fields, equipment and staff available to students who want to stay in shape over the summer or work on their athletic abilities for team sports in the coming year.

Clint Heard, athletic director for the Montgomery Independent School District, said the high school weight room is available from 8 a.m. to noon and 6-8 p.m. for students in seventh grade and above.

We also offer a special program managed by Cap Elite for more structured exercise, condition and cardio workout, Heard said. There is a fee, but its a program managed locally so kids can participate without leaving the district.

Evan Stone, a coach with the Willis Independent School District, said several programs are available for boys and girls. Specific schedules are available at http://www.willisisd.org.

University Interscholastic League regulations allow up to two hours of supervised athletic activities each day, but the programs are strictly voluntary and cannot include specific skill instructions for any sport, according to the UIL website. The optional programs can last no longer than six weeks and are limited to strength and conditioning regimens.
