Welcome to week ten of Club at Home! Every day, we share content that brings Club programs, traditions, and staff into the homes of members. Our goal is to provide the same fun and educational activities to our Club members and families, even while Clubs are physically closed. 

Today, we check in with staff from our Clubs who share different activities for members across all age groups, including an orange soda experiment, music editing, la Macarena, Tic-tac-toe, and whipped lemonade.

The second round of priority registration for Boston Public School students entering K2 and up closes this Friday, May 29. Families can pre-register online and schedule an appointment to complete the process, or call and register by phone. Click here for details.
