COVID for Kids

Important Announcements!

We know that with the schools and club being closed, it has put stress on all of our families to find things for kids to do and stay busy while they are at home. ​We have a ton of activities and ideas for your kids that we will be posting here for the next few weeks!

Watch this video to hear about what we have planned!

Club in a bag kits are currently unavailable, due to the Stay at Home order in effect 3/26/20. We will let you know when we can provide these again. Thank you for understanding.

Chat with your favorite staff member! We still want to know what has been going on! You might even get a video response!
