2022 Summer Recreation Program - Town of Orangetown
A Message from the Supervisor
 Hearing the sounds of children playing and the familiar chimes of ice-
 cream trucks through my open window can only mean one thing, that
 summer is just around the corner. And, as always, our Parks and Recreation
 Department has been working hard to come up with a selection of fun
 family-oriented activities and events for children, adults and seniors of all
 fitness levels to enjoy this summer.

 So, I urge all of you to carefully read through the brochure, mark your cal-
 endars, and sign up for any of the programs that piques your interest as
 soon as possible so that you don’t get shut out.

 Many thanks to Aric Gorton, Superintendent of our Parks and Recreation,
 and his entire staff for working diligently to bring you the very best that
 Orangetown has to offer. With the soaring cost of gas prices making trips
 away from home a bit costly for many of us, it is great to have a wide-rang-
 ing line up of programming and many parks and trails right here in
 Orangetown and Rockland County, so you don’t need to travel too far to
 find ways to enjoy your summer with family and friends.

                         Sincerely,
                         Teresa M. Kenny

learn some new skills associated with a sport they are already familiar with. The SkyHawks

chance to meet the staff. We will showcase four different sport stations - soccer, baseball,
basketball and flag football - for your child to rotate through during the day. Please send

2022 Summer Recreation Program - Town of Orangetown
SkyHawks
                Mini-Sports Camp

The fundamentals of each sport will be taught by Skyhawks Sports Camps. Sports camps
for children grades Kindergarten to 5th grade will be held at the Veteran’s Memorial Park
in Orangeburg. These programs will emphasize the basic skills and fundamentals of each
of the following sports: baseball/softball, basketball and soccer.
The mini-hawk sport camps will be for children entering kindergarten and 1st grades only
and will be an introductory program for young children that will explore multiple sports
in a fun setting. In order to participate, children must be entering the appropriate grade
as of September 2022
Veteran’s Memorial Park      9:00 AM – 12:00 Noon                    Monday through Friday

Beginning Golf
Skyhawks Golf focuses on building the confidence of young athletes by teaching proper
technique to refine essential skills of the game. Golf is a challenging and lifelong sport, so
young athletes need proper focus on the fundamentals of form, swinging, putting, and
body positioning. To assist in this training, Skyhawks has adopted the SNAG (Starting New
At Golf) system to its curriculum. SNAG utilizes a set of equipment designed for beginning
golfers, including oversized plastic club heads and “mini tennis balls” to help build confi-
dence and to have fun. Developed by PGA professionals, SNAG is specifically designed for
the entry-level player; SNAG simplifies instruction so that young players can make an easy
and effective transition onto the golf course. No need to bring your own clubs--all equip-
ment is provided. We keep the instructor-to-camper ratio low, resulting in limited avail-
ability. These programs fill up quickly.

Mini-Hawk
This multi-sport program was developed to give children a positive first step into athletics.
The essentials of baseball, basketball and soccer are taught in a safe, structured environ-
ment with lots of encouragement and a big focus on fun. Our Mini-Hawk games and activ-
ities were designed to allow campers to explore balance, movement, hand/eye coordina-
tion, and skill development at their own pace. Skyhawks staff are trained to handle the
specific needs of young athletes.
