Booth-Fickett K-8 was the host site for two Thanksgiving meal giveaways last weekend in an effort led by the Levi Wallace Foundation and the African-American Students Services Department of the Tucson Unified School District.
The Tucson High product returned to his hometown in March to host a youth football camp. More than 300 local kids learned from former NFL standout Brooks Reed, current NFL players Wallace and Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles and Arizona Wildcats standouts Stanley Berryhill III and Jamarye Joiner.
Levi Wallace, an NFL cornerback from Tucson who attended Tucson High, was on the Gridley Stadium field coordinating the drills for the more than 300 youths who particpated in the Next Gen Football Camp. The day had two sessions — younger athletes in grade school and middle school in the morning and high school players in the afternoon.
