SUMMER PARKS AND RECREATION PROGRAM
SIGN UP YOUR KIDS FOR SUMMER FUN!!!

The Summer Parks and Recreation Program began on July 6, 2010 and will run until August 26, 2010 from 8am until 3 pm. We serve breakfast and lunch through the Methuen Public Schools Lunch Program and have an average of 120 children in attendance every day. We play strategic games, basketball, have fun in the water fountain, on the swings, and with arts and crafts. We are fortunate enough to have hired 44 youth from the neighborhood to work at the parks and recreation program from 11-20 hours per week. We have our two staff, Joan and Carmen, funded by Essex County Community Foundation’s Summer In Greater Lawrence Grant for 2010, on site every day supervising the children and workers. We have hired staff through the Attorney General Martha Coakley's Project Y.E.S. Program, GLCAC, Inc., ARRA Funding, Valley Works Career Center and the Workforce Investment Board, and the City of Methuen Recreation Department.
