With our architectural design already completed by www.fellowsink.com, we are currently researching areas throughout America for the best possible location (TBA). Modeled after the Lake Placid Olympic Village, the center will provide housing at no cost to financially challenged families while visiting their family members participating in the program. In addition to providing a location for education and training, the complex will also provide an opportunity to meet, interact, and associate with other challenged athletes from around the world. Whether at work or play, we have no bounds for our center, and spare no expense in the rehabilitation process.

Aroostook Youth Football

-Our community-based Board is dedicated to raising sufficient funding for the purpose of developing football programs that will promote healthy growth and development in the youths in our area. -We believe that many youths are not able to participate in the existing programs offered to them either because of a lack of skills or lack of motivation. -We believe that the local area will benefit from the addition of an athletic program such as ours. Many “at-risk” youths don’t participate in school-sponsored programs and end up in trouble. -We have seen that a number of these “at-risk” youths gravitate to programs such as ours and become invested in and committed to positive and constructive objectives (with resulting improvement in school performance and home behavior, less conflict with the legal system). -We seek to educate students not only in the skills necessary to play football but also in important life skills such as responsibility, goal setting, sacrifice, sportsmanship, self-control, judgment, teamwork, leadership, and courage -We seek to assist students in pursuing a college education, using developed football skills as a way of financing these efforts through scholarships. -We seek to develop facilities and provide quality equipment for students of all ages to participate in football programs. Beginning with the development of our playing fields, we intend to create a viable high school / middle school tackle football program along with a viable elementary school flag football program. These programs will also require our taking on the task of training adults to provide coaching and officiating.
