Circuit Workout Looking to get that full body workout? Stop by the Community Center gym for a circuit workout. The intensity of the workouts will depend on how hard you push yourself. We will provide you with a log to keep track of your progress.

Ultimate Frisbee If traditional sports or workouts are not for you, come try Ultimate Frisbee! This sport combines the continuous play of soccer and the throwing, catching, and scoring you find in football. There is no doubt that you will be hooked!

Do you sing in the shower, the car, or while working out? Now you can sing along to your favorite songs in the Teen Center with our karaoke machine! Who knows, this could be your first step towards being discovered!

Friday Night Live Fridays nights in the Teen Center are LIT! Each first Friday of the month, we will have a new activity accompanied by music and food.

Come find out why the Teen Center is the place to be!

Learn Something New Art Exploration

Drop-in Soccer We provide the soccer balls and goals. You provide the fun and excitement. Games can be played outdoors or indoors.

Art always makes spaces look more sophisticated. In this class, we’ll come up with new art designs and projects to put around the Teen Center, take home, or decorate your locker at school.

Walking Club

Positive Thinking for Teens

Want to get a nice workout, but don’t want to run on the treadmill?

We have the perfect workout for you - walking! Did you know that walking has similar benefits to running? Join other teens and staff and walk together around the Community Center to exercise.

There is power in positive thinking. All of us can feel discouraged at times. However, we cannot let that feeling overwhelm us. Join Recreation Leaders and other teens as we come together to help motivate each other to set and achieve goals.

Drop-In Basketball

Garden to Table

Every Friday after school, the Community Center courts are the place to be! The gym is reserved just for you to hoop with your friends. Grab your buddies, a basketball, and meet us on the court!

Connect with Your Community

We have a teen created and sustained garden at the Community Center. We will plant lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, and more. Our group meets once a week to plant, water, harvest, and discuss plans for the garden. You will be able to take the vegetables home or use them in a recipe in our cooking class at the Community Center.

Movie Monday

Job Skills for Teens

Every Monday, the Teen Center turns into a mini movie theater. Grab a spot on the couch with some candy or popcorn and enjoy a great film.

We may watch anything from Disney classics, to motivational movies, to some of the newest releases. All films are rated G - PG-13.

Are you looking for a job, but don’t know how to get started? Our staff will help you with every step of the process. We will review how to fill out applications and give you interview advice.

Sweet Treats

Fall in love with the beautiful dances of Salsa, Mambo, Bachata, and Merengue. Beginners will learn the basic steps in a fun, casual setting. Even if you already know how to do these dances, we encourage you to show up and enjoy the music with other dancers!

This program is perfect for those who have a sweet tooth and those who love to bake! If both apply to you, then you must join us as we prepare different sweets and desserts.

Latin Dance

Homework Help Need a little extra help with homework? Our Recreation Leaders are here to help you succeed in school. Bring your questions to us, and we will work together to help you understand your homework or prepare for a test.
