Youth Golf Program
For over 20 years, AAMW has provided athletic programs such as golf and
tennis camps, basketball tournaments, soccer camps and Miniature
Olympics for Toddlers. Several thousand young people, pre-school through
high school, have taken advantage
of these programs which are instructed by high
school, college, semi-pro, and professional coaches. Our organization
has been given access to both private and public sports facilities in
support of these events which continue to grow
in participation. These programs are used as a tool
to teach young people discipline, teamwork, social etiquette, and the
benefits of a healthy life style.
The workshops and related fishing excursion provide
opportunities for children to meet and interact with environmentalists, business leaders and those who are genuinely
concerned about the our environment.
These hands-on workshops
have been created to promote awareness of the environmental issues
facing Westchester County residents. Through classroom and lab experiments students learn and get involved with issues that affect their quality of life and discuss how to improve and implement
lasting solutions.
