The work being done has touched lives and here is what they are saying.
Their program is one of a kind! Their just not a chess program, they are angels for those in the community. Me, my husband and sister met Mr. Romeo over 10 years ago on the park bench teaching kids chess. We came to play tennis and basketball in the park. My husband was curious and seen about fifteen kids surrounding one man. He wanted to know what was happening, so he went over there and seen them playing chess. He was amazed that one person got the attention of all those kids at once and how attentive they was. As he was talking my husband called our two sons and daughter over and our niece. The rest was history. We’ve been attending his free events since then. His staff his a mirror image of himself, it shows that he’s a good mentor and role model. Two of our children have graduated from college and the other is graduating from H.S. this year. His program a part getting them there. What never did understand is that a program like his never get any financial from the politicians in his area. When ask, he just said I can’t expect them to do what’s not in their heart, and he just left it like that, and I said no more.
This man and his staff are a blessing to our community. He’s always there when you need him.
Mr.Romeo and his to assistant are very good instructors my younger son is very eager to learn chess but if have a little difficulty because he have a little processing delay, they are very patient and understanding and continue to work with him each week to continue build his confidence and self-esteem.
This is a great program for the kids, we came across it on one of our weekend trips to library and the kids love it.
Great Job to staffs for providing such great opportunity for the community.
My boys Aaron 8 and Taevaughn 13 love coming to chess on Saturday at the library on 233 the look forward to it . It keep them focus and give them something to do on Saturday we come all the way from Soundview Ave.
