Shipman Youth Center (SYC) (www.shipmanyouthcenter.org), a not-for-profit community organization providing support to children and youth ages 10-18. The center was inspired by Thomas Shipman, a designated Lake Placid youth police officer, who died suddenly in 1995 and the center was built in his honor, with community donations of money, materials and labor.
The SYC has provided services to over 6,000 different children. Programs include homework time and assistance, community services, recreational services, weekly family-style dinners, dances, and guest speakers. SYC provides a supervised, safe and exciting environment where local children can grow and develop as individuals.
Since SYC’s inception, Dmitry Feld, the marketing manager at USA Luge, ensured Shipman’s vision has been fulfilled. Nearly 20 years ago, he created an annual barbecue and music festival to raise money for the Center. Mr. Feld passed away almost two years ago, and the event was rebranded as Dmitry’s Feast of the Peaks and Music Festival to honor his contributions.
