JPs Big Basketball Game


On Friday February 8th, 2013, the youth center was able to attend a basketball game of one of our own, Mr. JP Chenevey . The game was filled with excitement as our youth center cheered him on giving all the support we could. in the end the Ravens were not able to come out with a win but it was a winning experience for us as a youth center in the end. JP loved that fact that we could make it and we look forward to joining many of our other youth members who have sport events or activities that they participate in regularly.
