The Boy Scouts Learning for Life self-esteem building program is included in programming. This program provides leadership skills to high school student. The students are asked to act as positive role models for younger children and assist in daily programming. These educational programs are designed to decrease the use of drugs, alcohol, and tobacco. Local professionals are invited to speak on goal setting and the importance of education.
Youth come together to discuss current issues with an adult.
Local volunteers coach youth teams and travel to area games. Children up to age 10 learn about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. This program is based on the national Smart Moves program offered through the Boys and Girls Club. Midnight Madness and Thumping Thursdays are now offered year-round and provide late night activities for teens. The youth also engage in community service each day prior to attending PATS program.
