Third Eye- computer and summer camp
The Third Eye Youth program is so-called because it encourages youngsters to look beyond current fads and fashions and think with their "third eye", i.e. use their minds to work hard, develop skills, appreciate the legacy of past generations, and engage in productive activities. On a practical level, Third Eye is designed to boost their academic and computer skills, and broaden their cultural horizons.
     The project consists of building computing and academic skills and the annual summer youth camp. Funding is provided by in kind donations by private individuals, businesses, and a grant by Flagler County. Facilities and sponsorship are provided by the African American Cultural Society of Palm Coast, Florida, which works in partnership with other well known organization, such as the Boys and Girls Club of America. Open to all youth of Flagler County.
   
Building computer and academic skills: 
Students are provided structured academic activities in reading, research and writing incorporating today's technology. Students also build basic computing skills particularly typing and word processing. As they develop, they move on to more advanced job and technical skills using spreadsheets, databases and building web sites.
