Support Your Local Recreation Department and Youth Sports Programs
Your local recreation department and youth sports programs do a lot for the youth of your community. These programs provide opportunities for fresh air, exercise, friendships, positive adult role models, team building and improved self-confidence for the children in your town.
Most departments include such things as baseball, softball, soccer, basketball, football, hockey, arts and crafts, fishing, and other sports and leisure activities. Often programs are available for adults as well.
Ways you can support these programs are through donations of money and of time. Volunteer to coach a sport, sell raffle tickets, help out at a fundraising event, or teach a class. Buy advertising space in a program booklet, or buy the raffle tickets being sold by young athletes.
