Programs for Youth with Special Needs - Now Registering in Summit

Youth with special
needs and those who could use a little help and encouragement in participating
in recreation are welcome to register for several programs being offered again
this fall by several neighboring towns and coordinated by TryCAN. Our coaches
and instructors and excited to return to help our youth develop skills that may
allow them to pursue a sport or activity further or simply provide them with a
meaningful recreation experience. These popular and affordable classes, open to
both residents and nonresidents, also use trained teen Peer Mentors from local middle and high
schools to help participants learn and have fun.  We have a full schedule of programs:

· Reading Club (ages 5-9) – Thursdays starting September 25.
