RECREATION CENTER SCHEDULE:
The Compeer Recreation Center provides frequent socialization in a group setting. The Compeer Recreation Center offers 3-5 days per week of social opportunities in a group setting where participants can make meaningful peer relationships, practice communication skills and learn new skills.
The Compeer Recreation Center is available for use by anyone involved in the Compeer Program.
We serve lunch on the 1st and third Thursdays of the month AND we provide lunch every Saturday. The first Saturday of every month is our monthly mini-party where we celebrate all of the birthdays in that month, play bingo and have a special lunch together!
All Compeer participants that use the Rec Center are given a token for each visit. 12 Tokens gets you a $10.00 Giant Eagle gift card!
