Dear Parents, Families and Youth:

Across every neighborhood of Boston, BCYF community centers offer a vibrant menu of summer opportunities for young people and their families from summer camps and swimming lessons, to teen nights, sports programs, BCYF Neighborhood Block Parties, free drop-in enrichment activities, and summer jobs. Inside the BCYF Summer Guide 2015 you will find information about all of these programs and more!

BCYF programs are designed to support healthy youth development and extend learning through the summer months with activities that challenge and engage youth while building on their natural energy, curiosity, and creativity. BCYF summer programs also create lasting friendships, and connect youth to caring mentors and role models.

With hundreds of programs and opportunities to choose from, I encourage you to get involved at your local BCYF community center or pool this summer! Sincerely,

Martin J. Walsh Mayor of Boston
