Programs start Monday, and will run from 2 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, during the school calendar year.
Children must be between ages 6-12 as of July 19 to participate.
The cost for the program is $30 per week, per child. Snacks will be provided. Special activities may include an additional fee.
All payments are to be made at the site of the participant’s program. Each week’s fees are due prior to the participant’s week of care.
