Wrapping up the last week of summer camp with kayaking at Blackcreek Park in Churchville-Chili! 🛶☀️

For some of our campers, this was their very first time in a kayak—and they did an amazing job! From learning the basics to gaining confidence out on the water, it was a fantastic way to make memories and finish summer camp strong. 💦🌿

What a great summer spending our time outdoors exploring nature! ❤️

A special thank you to Ron, David, Ben members of Encounter Church for volunteering their time and service to support our urban youth.

Horseback riding 🐎 Meadows Of Mendon Stables, LLC

Horseback riding teaches kids valuable life skills, particularly responsibility. Riding horses helps improve balance, coordination, and core strength. Caring for a horse requires commitment and routine—children learn to feed, groom, and maintain the health of the equine horse. This nurturing aspect instills a sense of duty and respect for animals. This experience not only teaches responsibility but also empathy, as children develop genuine bonds with the animals they tend to.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks, to Audrey Whitlock Korokeyi a member of the National Sorority of Phi Delta Kappa, Inc., Zeta Zeta Chapter, a retired school teacher, and also served as a chaperone for field trips.

Audrey facilitated engaging and meaningful session with our youth group. She created a safe, welcoming space where our youth could openly discuss important topics, including cyber safety, healthy relationships, consent, personal hygiene, and more.

We truly appreciate her time, knowledge, and commitment to empowering our youth with the information and confidence they need to make healthy, informed choices.

Thank you, Audrey, for investing in our young people and helping them feel heard, supported, and valued! ❤️

Julia Oakley, director of Agape Haven of Abundance, stopped by Rochester Speaks with her summer camp youth to share what seven years of out of school programming has built in the Rochester community.

The kids speak for themselves. In just a few minutes of conversation, they cover financial literacy, mental health, Black history, yoga, sailing, horseback riding, job fairs and what it means to have a safe and loving place to grow during the summer months. Their future plans include nursing, law, teaching, medicine, psychology, professional sports and yes, at least one NFL or NBA career with a rap backup plan.

Agape Haven of Abundance provides out of school time programming for children in the city of Rochester, functioning as a home away from home and offering holistic support during the summer and school year.

Bird Watching at Braddock Bay Raptor Research Park 🔭

A bird of prey also called Raptors:
🦅 Eagles,
🦅 Osprey,
🦅 Falcon(fastest),
🦅 Hawk,
🦅 Swallow

Bird watching is a fantastic way for kids to learn about and appreciate all kinds of wildlife. Watching birds encourages empathy for living things and sparks discussions about nature’s balance. Observing birds like hawks in their ecosystem helps kids understand how animals depend on each other and their environment to survive.

Bird watching can greatly enhance a child’s listening skills by encouraging them to focus on the subtle sounds around them. Birds often communicate through chirps, songs, and calls that children learn to identify, which requires patience and careful listening. Over time, these skills can transfer to other listening tasks, making them more attentive listeners in everyday situations.

Our summer campers had a wonderful experience participating in six weeks of tennis, generously sponsored by YMCA of Greater Rochester! 🎾

Tennis provides youth with so much more than physical activity—it builds confidence, discipline, mental resilience, teamwork, and meaningful social connections. For kids of color, access to tennis can also create unique opportunities for empowerment, college and career pathways, mentorship, and belonging while helping break down historical racial and socioeconomic barriers in the sport.

We’re proud to give our campers the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive on and off the court! Each of them receive their own tennis racket for completing the program 🎾

She also made time to share her educational journey, her professional responsibilities to the university, and her commitment to serving the community.

We are truly grateful for the impact she continues to make in the lives of our youth and for the example she sets through her dedication, service, and leadership. Thank you, Dr. Anika Johnson
