Inner City Boxing Camp – The Turk Foundation

August 25, 2018 @ 10:00 am - August 26, 2018 @ 4:00 pm

| Free

The first ever free Inner-City Boxing Camp. To end off the summer on a positive note we have set the date for August 25th till 26th. The location is Withrow Park in the Riverdale Community between the hours of 10am – 4pm.

We will be splitting the children into 2 groups (5-9 & 10-16) Over the two-day period and alongside our experienced trainers, they will be focusing on Health, Exercise, Self Defense, beginner boxing techniques, and most important self-discipline. Between the boxing and other physical activities, we will be introducing guest speakers who will be speaking to the younger group (5-9) about bullying and getting along with each other. As for the older group (10-16) we will be focusing more on the topics of guns and gang prevention, choosing friends, choices, and consequences.

GOALS
Our goal is to speak to the Boys & Girls to make sure they are aware of the real-life consequences that follow the choices to be involved in gangs or to be involved with guns and other weapons. We hope to provide them with the guidance and knowledge to make positive choices in their lives. We aim to keep in touch with the participants to continually show our support in their future endeavours.
