Another summer of fun has begun at the Boys & Girls Club of Oyster Bay-East Norwich.  The Club is committed to providing quality programs for youth of all ages.  Summer programs, focused on social recreation and interaction, are carefully selected to keep summer campers engaged and active throughout the day. “Water Fun Day” a favorite of campers, is happening twice a week in our spacious, private playground area.  Each week, campers also enjoy cooking or baking goodies in the kitchen, playing kickball, volleyball and participating in other sports in the gym.  Creative imaginations are inspired in our innovative arts and crafts room, while focusing on STEAM and Brain Gain projects keep learning fun all summer long.

Registration is still open, so sign up today for the many summer programs the Club has to offer.  Applications and other information regarding the program are available online at www.bgcoben.com or may be picked up at the Club, located at One Pine Hollow Road, Oyster Bay.

Mini Camp is offered to members 3 years old and toilet trained to 5 years old and not yet in kindergarten. This program runs five days a week in the morning from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon and afternoon from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Summer programs for members in grades K-8 are offered five full days a week from 9:00 a.m.to 3:00 p.m. with extended morning drop off between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m., and after camp extended day from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

“Flexible scheduling continues to be a fabulous component of our already amazing summer programs,” stated the Club’s new Executive Director, Jean Marie Weiner. Families have been given the option to choose days over the course of the summer which work best for them. Days do not need to be consecutive or chosen in weekly increments. The flexibility offers families many options to choose the camp session that best fits their busy summer schedule.

The Club provides a safe, welcoming, air-conditioned facility, open rain or shine, offering multiple gamesrooms, an art room, a computer lab, a kitchen, a gymnasium and an outdoor play area.  For more detailed information, please contact Cathy Barrundia, Program Director, by email at Cbarrund@bgcoben.com, by phone at 516-922-9285, ext. 16, or find us on Facebook or follow us on TikTok and Instagram.
