CAMP 76 was created in memory of former University of Tennessee Volunteer and National Football League standout Harry Galbreath. Harry was born in Clarksville, Tennessee, and after graduating from Clarksville High School, he attended the University of Tennessee and was later drafted by the Miami Dolphins of the NFL and was named to the NFL All-Rookie Team. He later played for the Green Bay Packers and ended his career with the New York Jets.
Off the field, Harry was always involved in helping youth and athletes, even in his college days. He was active with the National Incarcerated Parents and Families Network later in life.
The love of football always kept Harry involved in the sport.

He later became offensive line coach at Hampton University in Virginia. He later returned to become strength and conditioning coach at his alma mater, the University of Tennessee.
Harry’s sudden passing in 2010 at the young age of 45 was an incredible loss not only to the world of football, but especially to his extended network of family and friends. Everybody who knew Harry has a story to tell about how he touched their lives. In addition to his incredible talent on the football field, his laughs, smiles and his gripping handshakes are missed by everyone who knew him. Camp76 is a continuing effort to keep the legacy of Harry Galbreath alive for young athletes for generations to come.
