DONATE NOW VOLUNTEER Teen Circle’s pandemic-safety jam draws applause from Boston media Worcester Youth Center’s Teen Circle got into the rhythm of COVID-19 safety with an infectious Zoom-based video that has drawn widespread attention and praise. Two Boston-based media outlets reported on the teens’ community service project. Directed by WYC Director of Creative Leadership Nydia Colón, “We Want Our Summer Back” sparked a “Wake Up Call” segment on Boston’s WCVB-TV, with NewsCenter 5 morning anchor Doug Meehan commending the youths’ catchy appeal to “wear that mask and wash those hands.” In an article on Boston.com, video producer Mark Gartsbeyn effused that “a group of Worcester teenagers have made an anthem for the coronavirus era, and it is frankly way catchier than it has any right to be.” Congratulations to all who took part in producing the video, and for giving a timely lift to all teens living in uncertain times. The YouTube video is linked below: WYC Worcester Youth Center has been serving young people ages 14 to 24 since 1994.
