Los Angeles Dodgers All-Star Justin Turner is hosting the second annual Justin Turner Baseball ProCamp on Thursday, June 14, at Westlake High School in Thousand Oaks, Calif., from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The one-day camp, presented by title partner Citi, is open to boys and girls, grades one through eight.

In addition, the experience is welcoming to athletes of all skill level. Turner, along with camp coaches, will provide tips, hands-on instruction, lectures and utilize fundamental baseball skills stations.

Each camp participant will receive a souvenir autograph from Turner (item will be provided; outside items not permitted), a camp team photo with Turner, and a Justin Turner Baseball ProCamp t-shirt.

Registration for the camp is currently open to the general public. The cost per camp attendee is $149, though Citi card members are eligible to receive a 20 percent discount.

The camp is another community initiative for Turner, who hosts an annual golf classic to benefit the Los Angeles Dream Center, and regularly visits local hospitals to brighten the days of countless children.

This year, Turner is serving the honorary race starter for the L.A. Marathon on Sunday, March 18, 2018. He’s the first Dodgers player to ever hold such an honor. The Justin Turner Foundation was selected as an official charity of the historic marathon, and is raising money for families and children in need.

Public registration for the Justin Turner camp is available via ProCamp’s website.
