Olivet Golf Tournament & Cocktail Party 2026

“Thinking back on my experience as a Club Kid at 677 Clinton Street, it still amazes me that I’m now in a leadership role here. I remember coming to the Club at eight years old, feeling so nervous because I was very shy. I can picture it like yesterday—walking through those doors and seeing an X-Men arcade game. As someone who loved video games, that moment instantly sparked my interest and gave me a sense of belonging from my very first visit. I still remember dancing in the gym and playing tag at the Clinton Street Dance Party on Friday nights, spending summers at the pool, and being one of the youngest members allowed in the deep end. My experiences as a Club Kid guide me every day in my role. I can relate directly to the youth we serve because I was once in their shoes—and I had peers who faced similar challenges. As a Site Coordinator, my goal is to create a safe, fun, and welcoming environment for our members—a place where parents feel confident and at peace knowing their child is at Clinton Street Olivet. I strive to be a positive role model for both our staff and members, and to build a strong team grounded in collaboration and a shared love for the community we serve.” — Mr. Baba
