The Story and Pictures of the Famous Camp Kimtu!

In the mid 90’s, coaches came together for a 5-day adult football camp. Our star presenter was Coach Golden Ruel who attended all four years. The Kimtu clinic experience was unique which featured pro, college and top high school coaches. Along with hours of football from 9 am to 9 pm, attendees also enjoyed a professional comedy show, whitewater rafting, storytelling and an up-close relationship with 5-Star Presenters around our fireside chats. In 100 degree weather in Willow Creek, CA we had plenty of ice cold pop and beer to hydrate the coaches. Classic memorable stories were made like when PAC10 Coach of the Year, Coach Jim Walden, who had a touch of the flu, had to stop his presentation and walk to the window to throw up. He immediately walked back to the microphone and did not skip a beat. The whole house roared because they thought it was because of him enjoying the local watering hole the night before.

Picture 1: The first Hard Rock winner “The General” three time Washington State Champion Chuck Tarbox (RIP) sitting with his honored rock and fellow Kimtu TEAM. There was blood on that rock, because the night before he fell back at the campfire and split his head open on the rock…but he got right up and kept clinicing.

Picture 2: We even worked on technique during road construction delay on the way to the Trinity River raft trip.

Picture 3: Rafters Coach Ruel, Coach Hamerschmidt, Coach Brea (WSU) & Coach Diedrick (Notre Dame).

Picture 4: For some reason coaches were not paying attention to Coach Brea

Picture 5: Coach Brea was smart enough to move to the distraction and get every ones attention!

Picture 6: Coach Black Tom Parry (RIP) showing off his Hard Rock Award and enjoying his last beer weeks before he died. Watch video at the bottom of Black Tom explaining what he had to survive to win that award

Black Tom’s last walk into a Honkey Tonk!
