How to resolve AdBlock issue? CLEARLAKE, Calif. – With renovations complete at Lake County Youth Services, the center is reopening and has plans to offer a new schedule of activities for the community’s young people.
Lake County Youth Services is open from 2 to 6 p.m. weekdays at 4750 Golf Ave., across from Redbud Park, in Clearlake.
The program serves children age 7 to 17 years.
The membership fee is $15.
The center’s volunteer director Joyce Overton said building renovations are complete and activity schedules are being developed.
Current volunteer hosts include dance instructor Tess James, who will lead a hip-hop/free style dance session once a week, and local yoga instructor Roslyn Griffin, who also will lead a weekly class.
Overton said the center welcomes volunteers who would like to share their programs with the community's youth.
She said evening dance schedules are being developed that could benefit from volunteer assistance as well.
"We need all the help we can get," she said.
Fundraising efforts continue and donations are always welcomed and appreciated, Overton added.
She said that with renovations complete, funding programs, activities and operation of the center can be the main priority.
A mystery dinner fundraiser is being organized for May 3 with assistance of Public Education Government (PEG) TV and the Lake County Theater Co. Volunteers for the event are being sought.
Anyone who would like to volunteer their time and/or talents with the children at Lake County Youth Services is encouraged to call the center at 707-994-KIDS (5437).
