After 15 years as the Executive Director of MVP Basketball Camp, Noel Muyskens has announced his retirement.  Noel was hand-picked from MVP’s founder, Stan Greene, to lead the camp and that he did.  Under Noel’s guidance, MVP flourished by increasing the number of campers each summer and increasing the number of scholarship campers, as well.  During his tenure, MVP was forced to relocate from its Highlands home on many ocassions due to renovations throughout the White Plains School District.  Despite these obstacles, MVP continued to attract basketball loving children.  Under his leadership, MVP celebrated its 20th and 25th anniversaries, 20,000th camper and 7,000th scholarship.  If you were a deserving young person, Noel made sure you could attend at least a week at MVP.

John Nemsick will be taking over for Noel.  John has been with MVP since its inception in 1994, first as a coach, next as the Director of Operations, and now as the Director.  John is also a middle school teacher in the Bedford Central School District.
