TEENS HAVE FUN AND MAKE NEW FRIENDS AT THE WESTFIELD AREA Y’S FRIDAY TEEN NIGHTS

The Westfield Area Y is excited to offer 6th–12th graders an opportunity to get together, hang out and have fun on Friday nights from 7:30 pm – 10:15 pm at the Robert & Virginia Bauer Branch, 422 East Broad Street in Westfield.  

Participating teens will enjoy a night of open gym for sports, free swimming in the Wallace pool and other activities planned by teens and  supervised and encouraged by Y staff.  Teen Night is not offered on Teen Dance or Teen Special Event nights or when school is closed.   

Registration is going on now.  Teen nights are free to silver members and offered to program members and non-members for a nominal fee.     A registration form must be signed by a parent/guardian and submitted before or upon entering.  Registration forms are available at the front desk of the Main Y facility or online at www.westfieldynj.org on the Teen Page.
