In October, Palm Beach County’s West Jupiter Recreation Center hosted their “Lights On Afterschool” event, where students, parents and faculty celebrate the importance of afterschool programs.
WJRC offers an afterschool program for about 40 kids – the kids play different sports, learn about healthy eating, help grow a garden, do arts and crafts and more.
“We just make them a better person, we build their self-esteem,” said WJRC Afterschool Director Rico Adona. Watch this video to see the benefits of the afterschool program at West Jupiter Recreation Center!
