Sorbel leaves Camp to chase his dream job By KATHIE NINNEMAN Communications Director After more than three decades of service at Hermann Sons Life Camp, John Sorbel has taken his love of working with children and love of baseball to the Leakey ISD. John will serve as the maintenance director for the 1A school district in the Texas Hill Country. But the draw for John was the opportunity to do something he has always wanted to do – coach high school baseball. He also will serve as an assistant coach for the football team. “It’s time to chase my dream,” he said. This was not something he had planned. Everything fell into place in about a three-week span earlier this summer. Coaching and other connec-
tions from years past were renewed and before he knew it, he was being offered a job. “I’m excited. I’ve made the right choice,” he said, joking that it was time to “mow my own grass,” a reference to the many years he has spent mowing the grass at Camp. Son Bryce will be coaching in nearby Medina, a school that is in the same district as Leakey. That means father and son will face each other as opposing coaches. Executive Camp Director Ian Brassett said, “I wish John nothing but the best. He was a big help to me when I arrived in 2018 and I am grateful for the knowledge he shared with me about Camp.” See SORBEL, Pg. 12
