The Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club-Throggs Neck Unit consists of services, which support the academic growth of program members and also enhance artistic talents.
The after-school Program is designed to emphasize on comprehensive youth, family and community programs, which focuses on educational, recreational, social and character development. The after-school program operates from the hours of 3:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. The after-school program members receive a nutritious snack and dinner sponsored and provided by the NYCHA as a part of promoting health and nutrition.
We offer a power hour component where students will work on their homework assignments. Other activities include: sports and fitness - (basketball, relay races, jump rope, football, wiffleball, soccer and various children’s games such as 'steel the bacon',). These activities will take place in the gymnasium, where focus will be placed on teamwork, good sportsmanship, and a sense of fair play.
Program members will also participate in an Arts & Crafts activity where they can allow their artistic talents to blossom. Program members will be encouraged to take part in drama and dance classes as forms of expression. The goal of the after-school program is to attempt to meet the needs of the program members and their families so that they can be productive members of society.
