Welcome to this BRAND NEW program!
For summer 2024 we are combining the very best parts of teen programs past to bring rising 7th-10th grade (up to age 16) teens an exciting, engaging, and adventure-filled summer opportunity for themselves and their friends. In this program, the key word is ACTIVE. This means that teens will be staying active through outdoor and indoor field trips, exercise classes, team-building challenges, and service projects. We are going to GET OUT THERE! Incorporated throughout the program will be opportunities for teens to learn about jobs in the area, the Recreation Department, as well as other important skills essential for success in employment, college, and life. This program is going to be unlike any program we have ever offered, and spots WILL be limited so that we can provide the best experience possible to local teens.

- Hiking Mt. Monadnock
- Rock climbing
- Volunteering in Playground Program for a morning or two
- Tours of a variety of work places
- Going to Chuckster's Family Fun Park
