Youth Drop-In

During the week, the Rec Room is open for youth ages 8-15 years old who are members or patrons with a Day Pass. Each day there will be a pre-planned activity at the beginning that youth can choose to participate in. These activities range from painting to pool tournaments to trivia. Youth who do not wish to participate are welcome to stay in the room and engage in quiet activities. Once the scheduled activity is complete, youth are able to access everything the Rec Room has to offer.

Teen Vibe

Teen Vibe is a Youth Drop-in Program for teenagers between 15 and 18 years old. This program  provides older youth with the opportunity to enjoy the Rec Room with their friends. Teen Vibe is offered to Members and Day Pass Patrons allowing them to join the Youth Attendants in video games, pool, foosball, boardgames and more.
