CLUB MEMBERSHIP

MEMBERSHIP

Clubs are safe, fun places for kids to spend their time when they’re not in school or at home. Club kids are known as Members. Through positive and healthy relationships, sports, arts, STEM, academics, and leadership programs, Members gain access to the tools they need to grow and lead healthy lives. 

To attend a Club site, a parent or legal guardian (who we like to call “caregivers”) must first register their eligible child to become a Club Member (follow instructions below).

  • Membership is open to all youth regardless of ethnicity, household income, gender, religion, gender expression, or sexual orientation.

  • Members must be between the ages of 5 through 18 AND currently attending Kindergarten through 12th grade. Members that are 5 years of age and attending kindergarten in the fall of 2025 are eligible for summer 2025 membership.

  • Members are required to attend Club at least 3 days/week.

  • Members and their caregivers are required to participate in an orientation and agree to a Code of Conduct.

  • Caregivers must complete an online registration form (link below), including providing household income verification upon registration and annually thereafter. Club serves all Members regardless of household income.

    Dinner and snack are served daily to all members during the school year. Breakfast, lunch, and snack are served during the summer.
