An exciting new summer recreation opportunity for Keizer youth is coming to three neighborhood parks in 2010. This first-year trial program will run 3 days per week for 9 weeks between mid-June and mid-August.
One day per week in each of 3 Keizer parks, trained staff members from Boys and Girls Club will lead neighborhood children in outdoor activities ranging from informal sports and games to nature study and art projects. The program will be open to Keizer area children in grades 1 through 6. Registration will be requied, and although the program itself is free, participants will be asked to purchase the $5 annual Boys and Girls Club membership; scholarships will be available.
Over the years, largely through their utility bills, Keizerites have made small donations designated for recreation. Until now, the City has not offered any recreation opportunities except an annual one-day skate park event. Currently amounting to about $3,000, these funds will allow the City of Keizer to contract with the Boys and Girls Club of Salem to staff the trial project.
