Boro President Health Fair

The reason why I’m just giving them 4 stars because we just join there program in the middle of the summer. Almost four months has gone by and so far so good. I see a big change in our twins after two weeks. The fighting among each other as stop and they are paying more attention to their duties at school and home. Update in two months. Thank you for the extra help! God has sent us a solider!

I met this gentlemen at the Northeast Y.M.C.A. back in June while with my daughter and grandchildren. My grandson went to the table where he was teaching chess to other kids. He didn’t turn my grandchild away, instead he took his time to teach him with the other kids. He made by grandson feel comfortable and got his full attention, it surprised me because my grandson is hyper. I ask him if he worked here and he said no, he said he comes here with his H.S. students to work out and play chess with a couple of them to get their mind right. He said while he’s doing that if a child wants to come in learn he won’t turned them away. He said when it comes to chess, you rarely see a child that shows interest unless other children are playing. For him to turn them away , he might not get another chance to teach that child or that child might not want to get engaged in anything else because with happened to him the last time. I said that it seems like that kids gravitate towards you why don’t you teach chess here. He reply and said, that I wasn’t the first to ask that question and people went to the front desk to inquire about it, and then he left it alone. We need young men like himself to mentor and be role models that our children can follow, especially in big recreational facilities like the Y.M.C.A. where this is no programs that can health the youth mentally. All I can say. is keep doing what you doing, your well appreciated! God continue to bless you!
