Chautauqua Striders

In 1979 Chautauqua Striders started as a track club and has grown into a multifacted youth development organization. Athletics is still a major part of the organization with a competitive track club and a summer youth development program aimed at introducing youth to the sport. The agency has grown to offer one-to-one and small group mentoring to youth grades 2-12 in Jamestown, Lakewood, Falconer, Frewsburg, and Bemus Point. Additionally, the agency provides Social-Emotional Learning and after school tutoring and educational enrichment activities in both Jamestown and Dunkirk for students K-12.
