Players ran up and down the basketball court, passing, dribbling and shooting. Little League teams battled it out on the diamond. On the tennis courts, children picked up rackets and swung away, while the nearby fields played host to football, lacrosse and soccer.
The Youth Sports Expo, which gave children the opportunity to try their hand at different activities, served as a kickoff to next weekend’s Trenton African American Cultural Festival.
Freeholder Sam Frisby, who is the executive director of the Trenton YMCA, said the event goes a long way in promoting community and improving the safety of the streets, but more importantly, informs families of activities they might not otherwise know about.
