Drop-in

General Interest Drop- in

“ Both of my children have been attending Before and After School Care at Don Christian Recreation Centre since they were in kindergarten. Not only have they grown up with fantastic instructors and leads, but I consider them to be a huge part of my children's social and academic development. The hours of operation are extremely flexible and the program is vital for families that have two working parents and no other childcare options. My family and I are extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to partake in such an exceptional program. ” JASON P. “ I enjoy coming to the recreation centre to socialize with my peers.Youth Drop-In allows me to catch up with everyone and play a variety of sports, including basketball, on a weekly basis. There are always plenty of opportunities to meet new people and create lasting friendships. ” VALENTINO P.
