Youth and Teens

 

Youth & Teen programming at the Boothbay Region YMCA is aimed at providing safe, fun, and rewarding activities for the area’s youth.  All of our activities, including alternative education, after school programming, teen nights, sports, and field trips are developed with student interest in mind.  We aim to infuse both the YMCA’s model of honesty, caring, responsibility, and respect, as well as the Search Institute’s 40 Developmental Assets.  New programs can always be created by popular support.

Each participant will compete for the Eliza Kinsey Memorial Youth in Government Award Scholarship which entails writing a sample legislative bill and an essay on the democratic process.
