     As summer turns to fall, the temperatures may start to drop, but the family opportunities provided by EYARC for great family fun keep on rising! This edition of the “Activities” brochure is filled with special family events, like Breakfast with Santa; safe and affordable programs for all ages, like Tiny Tumblers or Yoga in the Park; and weekly adult programs, like Co-ed Volleyball or Open Gym Basketball. We are also offering bus trips to the Apple Festival at the South Mountain Fairgrounds and a trip to New York City, so if gas prices are getting you down, sign up for one of our trips and let us provide the transportation for you!
     Besides highlighting some of the programs being offered in this brochure, I would also like thank all our wonderful volunteers. Your hard work, dedication, and assistance with our programs is greatly appreciated. Thank You!
     Last, but not least…we do our best to offer a variety of programs for everyone, but if there is a program that you haven’t seen offered by EYARC and would like it to be in our next brochure, please contact our office and let us know. We are always looking for new and exciting programs!
Have a great time recreating and I hope to see you at one of our programs or special events!
