FAR ROCKAWAY YOUTH SUMMIT 2026
FRANC is back again this year to host its annual Youth Summit at the Rockaway YMCA alongside partnering organizations from across the Rockaway community.

THEME: Rock N' Wave
DATE: June 4, 2026 | 11 AM - 4 PM
LOCATION: Rockaway YMCA Field: 2-07 Beach 73rd St. Arverne, NY 11692

The “Rock & Wave” theme represents the strength, resilience, and spirit of Rockaway Youth. The “rock” symbolizes stability, unity, and standing strong through challenges, while the “wave” represents movement, creativity, growth, and the energy of our community. Together, the theme reflects the balance between being grounded in who we are and continuing to push forward toward new opportunities and success.

We’re incredibly grateful to for their ongoing support and guidance. Minnie has played a huge role in helping us shape and build our brand in a meaningful way. Honestly, without her, our organization wouldn’t have the social media presence and footprint we have today.

Her knowledge, strategy, and ability to bring clarity to our vision has made a real impact. Minnie is truly our modern-day STEM hero her insight has helped move our mission forward in powerful ways.

If you’re unsure where to start or need expert direction, I strongly recommend reaching out to Minnie at

Let her know Stem In The Rockaways sent you—you’ll be in good hands.

Stem In The Rockaways gave each child a caterpillar, at our spring break event, that will soon transform into a butterfly. The kit included everything they needed food, a habitat, and detailed instruction so they could care for their new living companions with confidence.

This hands-on experience sparked real curiosity, with kids asking thoughtful questions about how to support and nurture the caterpillars. Now, they’re off on an exciting journey, witnessing the wonder of metamorphosis and raising a new generation of butterflies.

Stem In The Rockaways was excited to be at Scholars Academy to help kick off Civics Week. We spoke with students about the importance of volunteering with organizations like ours and how giving your time to a cause you’re passionate about can make a real difference in your community—while inspiring the next generation through civic service. And yes, we even brought our flight simulator for students to experience STEM in action. ✈️🚀

💻✨ Partnership Highlight | Computers4People x STEM in the Rockaways ✨💻

We were proud to drop off another computer from Computers for People to a kid in need — and this one truly inspired us. 💛

This young student has a passion for drawing, loves working on cars with his father, and already shows the mindset of a young aspiring entrepreneur. With access to a reliable computer, he now has the tools to explore his creativity, build new skills, and dream even bigger. 🎨🔧💡

This is what bridging the digital divide looks like — empowering talent, nurturing curiosity, and opening doors to opportunity.

🙏 Huge thank you to Computers4People for making moments like this possible and for continuing to invest in our community’s future.
