“Great program for neurodivergent individuals. Beautiful because of the experiences like learning a skill while socializing. Receiving items like a hat, a shirt, a tackle box, a fishing rod, pizza and a plaque is an amazing opportunity and a wonderful experience.” – Parent of Participant, Central Park Pond
“Seeing the children’s excitement to be learning a new skill…Very inspirational. I look forward to next year’s event.” – Shore Volunteer, Central Park Pond
