The Roessler Street Bridge might be closed but the doors are open daily at the Riverside Early Learning Center, 77 N. Roessler St., where Summer Kids Club 2015 is open from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday in the summer.

     Spots still are available for the current term and this year come with free lunch thanks to a summer program sponsored by the USDA.  Summer Kid’s Club at Riverside is open to children aged 2 ½ to 14 through August 28.

     “Our theme-based curriculum offers developmentally appropriate activities that stimulate learning, fun and creativity in a relaxing and nurturing environment,” said Barb DiFiore, Riverside Kids Club director. 

     Children participate in well-supervised arts and crafts activities, indoor and outdoor games, cooking activities, creative experiences and educational projects.  Friday means movies on the big screen in the gym with a special treat to enjoy during the movie.  Students also go on field trips and special guests stop by from time-to-time, too.  Riverside Summer Kids Club opportunities also include swimming at the nearby YMCA for children six and older.  Water play activities also are available at Riverside Summer Kid’s Club.  Nutritious snacks are served during the day, too. 

     Persons interested in registering their child or children for Summer Kids Club 2015 can pick up a registration packet at Riverside or call 734-265-4985.
