To be Kind, Explore, Express & be Nurtured!

The focus of the Archway K.E.E.N. Kids Club program is to provide weekly outdoor-based activities that enrich the lives of children in our community. The activities help to build friendships, creativity, communication, confidence, healthy boundaries, a sense of belonging and inclusion.
Each rotation of youth remains small, so that more attention and care is received. Each rotation includes a total of 8 youth ranging in age from 6-12.
The Club runs on weekend days in 4-week rotations. It runs from 10:00am-1:00pm. All program activity materials are provided.
This program has been thus far been extremely successful for it’s 2 years running. It’s demand in attendance is regularly growing and expanding. The biggest limitation is the funding needed for all families to access this program for their child(ren).
