Fall Festivities in Crotona Park!

Monday may have been a day off from school, but not from fun.

NYJTL served up its third annual Fall Festival in Crotona Park, adjacent to the new Cary Leeds Center for Tennis & Learning.

More than 1,000 students from our ACES Afterschool Programs and Community Tennis Programs, and more than 100 volunteers, including a number of high school students and a crew from New York Cares, turned out for the festivities.

The day was filled with music, dance, games, food, face painting, and of course, tennis. And every student was able to pluck a pumpkin from our pumpkin patch to take home.
