Boys & Girls Clubs of the Emerald Coast Enrolling for Summer Program
The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Emerald Coast has opened enrollment for its summer program. Programs offer Club members something fun, educational and exciting to do during the school break at an affordable price.
“Our action-packed activities inspire creativity, build character and provide academic enrichment,” BGCEC CEO, Shervin Rassa, said. “Not only will your child participate in fine arts projects and fun games, they will also enjoy learning about healthy lifestyles and good character and citizenship. Our summer program is a great way for kids to make friends, learn new things and just have fun!”
Members are provided quality instruction, engaging activities and field-trip experiences. Boys & Girls Club Members have a higher academic retention rate once returning to school compared to those who do not participate in a summer youth development program. The summer program is open to students who have completed kindergarten.
“It was a really fun place to express myself in a safe environment,” past-program participant, Racquel T., said. “I was able to learn so much from programs and field trips and make lots of new friends!”
The fee for the summer program is $400, which is significantly lower than most summer childcare rates. Discounted rates are available for students who qualify for free or reduced lunch. A one-time, $25 registration fee will be added to all summer memberships. The Summer Youth Development Program operates Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. (6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Destin Club) following the last day of school until the 2019/20 school year begins. Summer programming will be offered at the following Clubs: Pensacola-Englewood Club, Destin Elementary, Fort Walton Beach Youth, Fort Walton Beach Teen, Kenwood Elementary, South Walton, and DeFuniak Springs Club.
