Small choices led to big wins today 🏅

Our word of the day: HONESTY 🌟

Campers learned that honesty goes beyond telling the truth. It means taking responsibility, owning your actions, and making the right choice even when no one else is keeping score. We saw those lessons come to life all morning long.

🩵 Ask your Kid of STEEL: Why is it important to do the right thing, even when no one is watching?

One more day to go! 🎉

Character was on full display today 👏

Our word of the day: SPORTSMANSHIP🏅

Campers showed what it means to be a good sport in every moment, cheering on friends and bringing positivity, respect, and encouragement to every game.

🩵 Ask your Kid of STEEL: How can you encourage others in everyday life?

Let’s bring the energy for Day 3! ➡️

Paddles up and racquets ready!

This summer, kids and families can get moving with pickleball and tennis programs at Allegheny County Parks. These fun, engaging sessions introduce the basics of each sport while building coordination, confidence, and a love for staying active outdoors.

Led by experienced instructors, it is a great way for kids to try something new, stay active, and enjoy time on the court all summer long.

As part of our Move in the Park spotlight series, Kids of STEEL is excited to highlight these opportunities to keep your kiddos moving in a fun and active way.

Some moments become memories you never forget…

For some parents, that meant cheering from the sidelines. For others, it meant running alongside their kids every step of the way.

After months of preparation, the Kids Marathon became a shared moment of pride, emotion, and connection they’ll always remember together. 🩵
