2nd Annual Be You Stay True Basketball Camp
Saturday, July 16th 2016 was a great day for the BYST Program. The program ran their 2nd annual basketball camp at Monsignor Scanlan Highschool in the Bronx, N.Y. Nearly doubling enrollment from last years event, the kids received free instruction on fundamental basketball drills from the men and women basketball teams at the College of Mount Saint Vincent (Riverdale, N.Y). Like last year the day was filled with basketball drills and stations, along with our annual discussion of our motto "Be You Stay True". Where the coaches shared personal stories of their basketball upbringing and how they were challenged with being themselves as young kids. Also the coaches explained to the children what the motto means to them and how we all could live by it. Following were competitions, games, and an award ceremony for the children who received certificates, shirts, and other prizes. It was an even greater fulfilling experience for everyone involved as the amount of participants increased so did the volunteers and supporters. The BYST program would like to thank all the coaches, participants, sponsors, volunteers, and supporters for making our second annual event a great experience for all who attended!
Everyone was a winner at our camp!
