Martensville Youth Connection (MYC) has been going strong this summer. After taking a week off in July, they started with Monday afternoons meeting at the Heritage Centre Spray Park to discuss different topics such as problem solving, nutrition, wellness plans, and body image, followed by learning baseball skills.
Tuesday afternoons they gathered at Paw’s Republic to hang out with some furry friends and talk about things such as trauma, anger, triggers, core beliefs, values and morals.
Wednesdays were pool days with free entrance to the Martensville Aquatic Centre to discuss hygiene, how to take care of yourself, peer pressure, gratitude and bullying.
Thursday afternoons were spent with the seniors at Sunset Villa baking, playing bingo and cooking lunch with them.
The month of August will be the same schedule as July. All youth aged 10-17 are welcome to join any of these days during the week.
“We would love to thank a few programs who are supporting us this summer,” said Katharine Carter, Youth Connection Manager of MYC.”
