Our Drop In
Program
The Youth Center Drop-In Program is intended primarily for kids ages 8 to 18 and is set up as a drop-in format, so kids can come and go as they please. For many kids, this provides the opportunity to engage in fun supervised activities with their peers; while acting as a good alternative to going home to an empty house, and idle activities after school.
In order to participate in the drop-in program youth must fill out contact information, and sign our rules. Parent/ legal guardian must sign contact information to verify its accuracy and to acknowledge that they’re aware of their child’s participation here. Click here for Contact and Rules Info Form.
The Youth Center offers activities such as foosball, air hockey, board games, pool, game cube, x box, and a computer lab, as well as other organized activities.
Computer Lab

Teen Meeting
This will give local teens the opportunity to voice their opinions about what they’d like to see happening at the Youth Center; as well as collaborate with others on how to deal with day to day issues. Meetings take place the third Thursday of every month and begin at 5:00 p.m.
