Tim Camp named WHS head football coach and TPT director
Waynesville High School is proud to announce Tim Camp as the new Head Football Coach and Director of Tiger Performance Training, beginning with the 2026–27 school year.
“My family and I are grateful for the opportunity to join the Waynesville community,” said Camp. “We are excited to build meaningful relationships, inspire young athletes and be part of something truly special.”
Coach Camp brings more than 20 years of collegiate coaching and athletic leadership experience to Waynesville. His distinguished career includes stops at The University of the South, the University of Nebraska–Omaha, and Bucknell University, along with a highly successful tenure at Eastern Oregon University.
Camp led the Eastern Oregon University Mountaineers football program for 17 years, becoming the all-time winningest coach in program history during his tenure. Under his leadership, the program experienced sustained success both on and off the field. He developed over 100 All-Conference players and coached seven Conference Players of the Year, including five Frontier Conference Defensive Players of the Year and two Offensive Players of the Year. On the national level, 22 Mountaineers earned AFCA-NAIA All-America honors under his guidance.
Camp was named Frontier Conference Co-Coach of the Year twice and, in 2020, led the Mountaineers to their first conference championship in program history, earning Frontier Conference Coach of the Year honors. His teams also achieved national recognition, climbing as high as No. 11 in the country.
Camp has also played a significant role nationally in shaping the game of football. He has served on the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Rules Committee and the AFCA Football Raters & National Oversight Committee since 2008. He is also a member of the AFCA-NAIA All-America Team Selection Committee (since 2014) and the AFCA Summer Manual Committee (since 2010). Additionally, Camp is a frequent presenter at Glazier and Nike coaching clinics, sharing his expertise with coaches across the country.
Camp earned a bachelor’s degree in sociology from Oregon State University and a master’s degree in Coaching and Athletic Administration from Concordia University Irvine. A four-year starting offensive lineman at Oregon State, he earned all-conference honors before signing a free agent contract with the San Diego Chargers.
“Joining this district marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter,” Camp added. “We look forward to contributing, growing and making a positive impact together.”
Camp and his wife, Janet, have two sons, Willie and Walker, and one daughter, Kali.

7 WHS students win all-expenses-paid trips for essays
Seven Waynesville High School juniors have earned all-expenses-paid trips through an essay competition sponsored by the Laclede Electric Cooperative and hosted by the Association of Missouri Electric Cooperatives.
The WHS students are Russell Aden, Emmay Bailly, Aminah Harmon, Ziarlene Bituin, Deja Pelliccia, Joe Telebrico and Bella Wethington.
This contest showcases student talent and leadership among Missouri’s youth. The schools serviced in the Laclede Electric Cooperative were invited to participate in the contest, and entries were received from Conway, Hartville, Lebanon and Waynesville.
Out of the 95 essays that were entered, a panel of judges at the Laclede Electric Cooperative in Lebanon selected the top 15. They then sent the essays to three judges in separate cooperatives across the state who chose the top 10. Out of those 10, Waynesville students took seven of the winning spots. The top four essays earn the Youth Tour to Washington, D.C., and the other six earn the CYCLE Leadership Conference in Jefferson City trip.
Russell Aden, Emmay Bailly and Aminah Harmon will represent Waynesville High School on the Missouri Youth Tour to Washington, D.C., in June 2026, while Ziarlene Bituin, Deja Pelliccia Joe Telebrico and Bella Wethington will attend the Cooperative Youth Conference and Leadership Experience (CYCLE) in Jefferson City in July 2026.
The Missouri Youth Tour, organized by the Association of Missouri Electric Cooperatives, brings more than 100 Missouri high school juniors to Washington, D.C., for a week of leadership development and civic engagement. The essays of Aden, Bailley, and Harmon earned them a spot among nearly 2,000 students nationwide. They will visit the U.S. Capitol, Smithsonian Museums and other historic monuments while learning about electric cooperatives’ community impact.
The CYCLE program, a four-day conference in Jefferson City, immerses high school juniors in Missouri’s state government and cooperative model, and also brings in national guest speakers. The four essays of Bituin, Pelleccia, Telebrico and Wethington secured their place among Missouri’s brightest young leaders. They will engage with nationally known speakers, tour the State Capitol, and participate in a mock legislative session.
