5 to 12 are eligible. Hourly care will be available Tuesday, February 1 after

will be held every Saturday at the Youth Center. The youth cheerleaders will be

their skills so come out and show your support. Call the Youth Center for game

A variety of classes are available for your children
at the BAFB Youth Center. Contracted instructors teach piano and martial arts.

Employment for working age youth (on-base) is
usually obtained through NAF(Non-Appropriated Funds) in the form of lifeguards,
and through individual ambition in the form of babysitting, mowing lawns, pet
care and house sitting. The American Red Cross offers classes to obtain
babysitting certification through the Family Support Center.
