TEEN NIGHTS AT THE WESTWOOD PARK YMCA

Every Friday Night Through June 19: 7-9:30 PM

FOR TEENS, BY TEENS

This fall the YMCA of Greater Nashua is kicking-off Friday Teen Nights at the new Westwood Park YMCA. After discussions with teen focus groups as well as community leaders of neighboring towns, the Y is planning a wide array of activities for teens ages 13 to 16, primarily. “This is a for-teens, by-teens program and we’re excited by the soft opening we had earlier in September,” said Randy Menken, Westwood Park YMCA Executive Director. “Our teens have a lot of ideas for programming. We expect to keep adding to offerings throughout the year to keep our Teen Nights relevant and interesting and have scheduled them through the end of the school year, which is June 19. The Y provides a safe and positive atmosphere for teens to meet, have independence, and learn the values of respect, responsibility, caring and honesty.”  Activities are supervised and encouraged by Y staff and will include monthly sports leagues.

The Westwood Park YMCA is located at 90 Northwest Boulevard, just off Amherst Street in northwest Nashua. For more information call 603.402.2250 or e-mail Randy Menken.
