The Gene Friend Rec Center caters primarily to families of Filipino descent in the neighborhood but is open to all. Youth programs include gardening, arts and crafts, baseball, basketball, poetry. The center also hosts a School Year Latch Key and a Junior Giants program.
I like these a lot – especially the cat!
I am constantly amazed by the creativity, ingenuity, and sprit that artistic minds are able to create and the emotions their work can invoke in me.
