BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) -- Dunkirk's Youth and Recreation Department announced Monday that it has received a $10,000 grant from Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Legacy Funds in order to start a new sports program for local children.
The department plans on starting a "sports sampling program" for children ages 5-17 that will feature softball, basketball and soccer throughout the year. The grant will allow the department to give children in need the opportunity to learn basic sports fundamentals for free.
Registration and start dates have yet to be announced.
