Roy Wilkins' Green Teens Farewell Lunch

The Roy Wilkins' Green Teens volunteers and Green Teens SYEPs  were treated to a luncheon yesterday. The delicious Subway spread was set up in Roy Wilkins Park under a nice shady spot. Staff  described how much the Green Teens helped out this summer in Roy Wilkins Park and the Recreation Center. A center manager mentioned watching some Green Teens come out of their shell during the past few weeks. Another manager mentioned the professionalism and work ethic the Green Teens  bought to the center throughout the summer. Certificates of Recognition and community service letters were given to the Green Teens followed by lunch. After enjoying the Subway all the Green Teens spoke about their experiences this summer. One Green Teen mentioned he learned the proper way to sweep. Another Green Teen mentioned being thankful for the opportunity to make new friends. The center staff at Roy Wilkins will miss this exceptional  group of Green Teens but are hopeful many will return in the fall.
