After each game, players are encouraged to socialize and build lasting relationships, both on and off the court. Rules and Fair Play: While we don't have referees, we do have established rules and guidelines to ensure fair play. Players are expected to adhere to these rules and exhibit good sportsmanship throughout all sessions. Bring a basketball and a dark colored & light colored shirt each week.

Kids spend their young years playing with LEGO® Bricks, stacking the blocks together to create an immersive world. Bricks4Kidz takes this one step further with our LEGO®-Inspired after school classes and summer camp programs. These activities deliver play that’s fun, educational and enriching for each child. We use guided instructions with the students as they build a project and see their vision come to life. Summer 2024 - Brick City Lego Camp: Let’s build a CITY! There are many different types of engineering jobs, and building is one of the most fun! What would a city be without the architects and engineers who come up with the ideas, plans and building skills to make it all come together? Campers will put their engineering and architecture skills to work as they build city themed models using LEGO® Bricks. The sky’s the limit when campers are challenged to use their own ideas and skills to build a skyscraper taller than their heads! They’ll have a blast using custom-built cars to move the people of the city all around town – brick by brick! What an accomplishment to be able to proudly exclaim “We built this BRICK City!”" Ticket to Ride Amusement Park Lego Camp: Get your ticket to ride at Bricks 4 Kidz very own Amusement Park! Build you favorite amusement park ride with LEGOs. Campers will build a new ride each day, learning how to make things spin, roll, turn and rock. Then they will take what they have learned to design their own thrills and challenges. Motorized models maximize the action and the fun. Each camp day includes carnival- themed games, group challenges, model-building and more. (K-5th grade)

The Canine Companion training philosophy is: dogs learn through experience, punishment training is dangerous, there are better options and reinforcement drives behavior. The only way to truly facilitate lasting behavioral change and rewire the way your dog thinks is through positive reinforcement. Force free, reward based trainers have put in the work, done the research, and will take the time to get to know your dog's individual learning style to keep everyone safe and help your dog learn.
