MYCP Hosts Annual Awards Celebration May 9

MARATHON, FL (236 words) – With a record year of statewide recognition and service learning projects, Monroe Youth Challenge Program prepares to host it’s annual awards celebration for students, parents and dignitaries. Monroe Youth Challenge Program, a grass-roots non profit organization that runs programs on every school campus in the county, is to recognize community partners and outstanding student participants Friday, May 9.

The reception is set for 6 p.m. at Sombrero Country Club in Marathon because of its central location and ability to host the anticipated crowd. “After the success of the event for the last two years and the enthusiasm of the parents and partners, we look forward to another meaningful night for our youth,” said MCYP Director Sunny Booker.
