It has been a busy couple of weeks hosting our 4th Annual MINI Golf Outing, providing recreational opportunities at the Chester Annual Spring Summit and co-hosting the recent History of Sport in Chester Storybook Walk. All these events are part of our efforts to increase awareness for the expanded program offerings that YDU is offering throughout Chester, Upland and Eddystone for elementary and middle school youth.

As Delco Gives nears, please consider helping us reach our $15,000 goal in support of additional FREE out-of-school activities.
