Rec's Kids Clubhouse
Rec's Kids Clubhouse offers a variety of fun recreation activities for the youth. The Parks Department hopes that this free year-around service, weekdays from 3pm to 6pm and summer programs from 10am to 4pm, will provide a structured and safe enviornment. Fun filled activities such as crafts, games, sports, swimming, special events and field trips will be available for youth ages 6-12 yrs. The summer program will start the first week of June from 10:00am to 4:00pm, Monday through Friday. A $35 donation is greatly appreciated and additional program options not included in the times above will be offered for a small fee.
Summer and afterschool programs encourage active healthy lifestyles while promoting social, emotional, and cognitive growth through play. Studies show when children and teens are not in school and are without constructive activities or adult supervision, crimes by and against children soar, including car accidents, substance abuse, and sexual assault. For every dollar spent on out of school programs, taxpayers save an average of $6 in crime costs. Proper after-school and summer programs can reduce negative behaviors and increase positive behaviors and self-confidence.
