Teen Night Hang Outs
It all started on Jan. 7, when a group of kids ranging in age from 10-17 had a blast at our BRAND NEW TEEN NIGHTS open to all pre-teens and teens in the community!
Held from 7-10pm on the second Friday of every month are Teen Night Fridays; the building is open just for teens and pre-teens. The first hour is full of food, team building, and getting-to-know-you games and exercises. The final two hours are open for the kids to go where they please; the gym, the pool, the climbing wall, or Youth and Teen Room where there’s Rock Band, Wii Fit, and Guitar Hero. The cost is minimal of $5 if you pre-register and $7 at the door.
We look forward to these events becoming bigger and bigger and invite all churches, schools, and interested participants. For further information or dates on Teen Nights, contact the member relations desk at (847) 410-5371. Next Teen Night is March 13th- Mark your calendars!
