The North East Little Pickers organization is a joint effort of community volunteers who seek to promote fun and healthy recreation in the North East community.

For many years, the North East Little Pickers (NELP) have been a coalition of volunteers who plan and implement recreational activates for children in North East. These activities will usually consist of a sport, played once or twice a week, for a few weeks at a time. 

 

​​Recently, the NELP has arranged these activities:

  • Indoor / Outdoor Soccer - typically played in the North East Intermediate Gym or on school grounds. Coaches provide introductions to soccer skills / team concepts and use age-appropriate balls. Teams of 5-7 will play against each other.
  • Basketball - usually played in one of the NE School Gyms. Coaches provide introductions to basic basketball skills skills / team concepts. 
  • Swim Team - introduces competitive swimming to NE children and open to all swimming skill types. Meets are in the NE School pool or in pools in Erie County.
  • Flag Football - all the fun of football without the contact, usually played in Heard Park.
