Youthfest is coming

Don’t have plans yet for Sunday? Well, head over to the 11th annual Youthfest. It’s free. It’s educational. And, it’s even fun. Youtfest brings together scores of nonprofits and businesses in the county to show their stuff at booths throughout the RCC Fieldhouse. There’s plenty of hands-on stuff, including the Teddy Bear Hospital sponsored by Nyack Hospital (it’s not strictly a BYOB thing, they will lend you one if you forget.) And there’s always first responders there to give an inside look (see below.)
Best part: There’s a stage set up that allows local schools, dance troupes, clubs and other youth organizations to perform. Wonderful fun. And some of these kids are really talented—and they all try really hard and show great dedication. So see you at the Fieldhouse sometime between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. See what Rockland has to offer.
