Recreation

The recreation programs offers a richly varied program that includes active and spectator sports events, cultural events, crafts, camping, hiking, square dancing, extended vacations and a host of other social and leisure time activities. Programs are held on Tuesday's, Thursday's, Friday’s and Saturday’s.

This program, locally funded, offers many opportunities for developing social skills, increasing self-esteem and self-worth and building friendships. It also provides respite for families.

Program participants receive a monthly newsletter that lists a calendar of events.

The Best Buds Club is collecting old cell phones that are no longer used.  Instead of allowing your old cell phone to end up in a land fill where it will remain forever consider donating it to The Best Buds Club.  They will send it to an organization that will either recycle the phones in an environmentally safe manner or refurbish the phones.  The refurbished phones are then donated to organizations to be used for emergency purposes.  A collection box is located at the main office.

Wishing you a safe and happy summer!
