TEEN CENTER OPEN DROP-IN

Teen Centered - New Chairs!Located at the Bainbridge Island Aquatic Center, the Teen Center is within easy walking distance of the Bainbridge High School, Woodward Middle School, Kitsap Public Library, Safeway, and Eagle Harbor High.

Stop by any afternoon or evening to check out the space. We have a pool table, ping pong, air hockey, foosball tables, board games, comfy chairs for relaxing, a game room, and weekly activities!

What teens do in their free time affects the quality of life for themselves and their community. Our job is to keep young people engaged and busy during their teen years on the Island. We do this by actively developing youth leadership through learning names and developing relationships, and offering choices of stuff to do – or not do. Sometimes teens need to hang out.

Established in 1992 by the Park District – in partnership with the Rotary Club and School District – the Teen Center has been providing year-round activities for teens in Middle and High School-ages for more than two decades. Adult staff members are always on hand to supervise and instigate fun every afternoon after school and on Friday and Saturday nights. In the summer, we are open from late afternoon through evening. While other places have great things for teens, our experience, Park District resources, and dedicated space make us the “Place to Be.”

CLASSES

Between studies and socializing and sleeping, we understand that there’s not a lot of free time in a teen’s day. With added school sports, music, and interest clubs/groups, young people can have little time for themselves just to hang out and be. We try to carefully expand the free-time choices available to teens and offer them within walking/biking/busing distances, without overwhelming families. The Park District has many things happening specifically for teens. You can check them out in our most recent catalog which is available on our homepage. Look for the purple star throughout the catalog for other programs teens can participate in.

SERVICE/VOLUNTEERING

Teens

First, we need to tell you there are always snacks for volunteers. Always.

Second, we have entertaining options for fulfilling required community service hours. 9th-grade Health? Honor Society? Service Learning Project? Diversion? Scouts? We’ve got you covered.

If volunteering for special events, collecting canned goods at a music event, helping younger summer campers, or picking up beach debris on Earth Day sounds good, contact us, and we’ll find ways for you to have fun while giving meaningful service!

Adults

If you’re the kind of person who would like to be a part of what the Teen Program offers and have some volunteer time, we’d be happy to come up with ways you would enjoy helping!
