Drop-ins

If finding fun summer activities close to home, for your child is a priority, check out our FREE drop-ins around Town. We are bringing back supervised, parent-free, child-led outdoor activities with our Summer Drop-ins. We hire staff that bring supervised, unstructured play to various locations around town. Parents can be fearful of allowing their children to go play unsupervised; we want to alleviate that concern by having staff on-site to supervise. Staff show up with a bunch of equipment and the children lead the way!
