The Boys and Girls Club of Merced County is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the youth of the community through after-school programs, camps and other activities.
With a mission to provide safe spaces and valuable opportunities for children, the organization has consistently fostered environments where young minds can thrive.
This winter, the Boys and Girls Club members are hosting a Winter Camp in Los Banos for children in grades TK-6, providing engaging activities and opportunities for fun and growth.
Scheduled from Dec. 23 to Jan. 10, the Winter Camp promises days filled with fun, learning and creativity.
Taking place at the Los Banos Fairgrounds, located at 403 F St., this program offers an excellent opportunity for children to stay engaged during the holiday season while parents can feel comfortable knowing that their children are in a safe and nurturing environment.
The camp operates Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., accommodating working families and providing a full day of activities.
The Winter Camp program is designed with a wide range of activities that will captivate and inspire children.
Participants will have the chance to explore the environment, participate in holiday cooking activities and participate in arts and crafts workshops.
One of the most appealing aspects of the Winter Camp is that it’s completely free of charge for children in grades TK-sixth.
The Boys and Girls Club members recognize the importance of accessibility and inclusion, which is why the program covers meals, snacks and transportation for participants.
This comprehensive support removes barriers for families who might otherwise be unable to afford similar opportunities for their children.
To maintain quality and ensure a personalized experience, space at the Winter Camp is limited. Registration is conducted on a first-come, first-served basis, emphasizing the importance of early enrollment.
Parents and guardians who wish to enroll their children are required to complete a pre-registration process. This process begins with scanning a QR code featured on the program’s flier, which redirects to a Google Doc form.
Upon pre-registration acceptance, parents and guardians will receive an email detailing the mandatory orientation session, which must be attended before the child’s participation in the camp.
With limited spots available, parents are urged to act quickly to secure their child’s place. Registration is open now, and the QR code for the pre-registration form can be found on the official flier.
Don’t miss this chance to be part of a program that combines education, fun and community spirit.
The Boys and Girls Club of Merced County’s Winter Camp is sure to be a highlight of the season, setting the stage for a brighter and more enriching year ahead.
