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.

“Open Rec Nights”
Beginning in October, two Friday’s per month will be “Open
Rec Nights” These Friday’s will give you the opportunity to
decide what you want to do and with whom. You may choose an
evening activity or a day activity. You choose the activity
and you choose your friends. We provide the staff and the
transportation.
This program is a shared responsibility:
YOU:
-
Choose a date and an activity before signing up for an
activity.
-
Contact all your friends and agree on the date and the
activity.
-
Designate one person as the contact person. That person
will call and register the group on sign up day.
WE:
Examples are: movies, dinner, bowling, dancing, concerts,
sporting events, dating, double dating, girl’s night out,
boy’s night out, etc., etc., etc. So, start thinking now
about what YOU want to do. Look for open rec nights in the
October newsletter.
All open rec nights will be open to a minimum of two people.
All of the above changes are temporary. At the end of 3
months, we will evaluate the success of these programs. If
feedback and attendance are good we will make them a
permanent part of our program. So, please let us know what
you think!
