Teen Programs

Registration for Fall 2023 programs will open Tuesday, June 13.

A note about registration: Many of our programs fill quickly, so we highly recommend registering on the waiting list. We go to this list first if a space opens up. And by adding your name, you can help us better plan for the programs that are in high demand.

Storytelling Saturday

With Monya Relles
Saturday, December 9
Suggested ages 11-14
Special time: 11am to 3pm
Suggested Donation: $10-$40 per teen

Come visit for a Saturday and play a role playing game (RPG) like Dungeons and Dragons. We’ll build a character and go on a group adventure with Hitchcock Educator Monya as our guide. It might be silly or serious but either way it will be loads of fun.

Adults are welcome at the center during this time but not required to stay for programming. This program will be inside for the duration and masks are welcome but not required.

Fees

Out of a strong commitment to improve access to our programs we are now offering a sliding scale fee structure aimed to provide greater flexibility in choosing a price that is right for you and your family.

Tier A: The fee is set 15% higher than what it costs to run the program and helps to support those who cannot afford the full cost of the program.
Tier B: The fee is set to cover 100% of the program costs.
Tier C: The fee is set at 15% less than what it costs to run the program.
Tier D: This fee is set at 35% less than what it costs to run the program. This option is available for EBT, WIC, and Connector Care participants, that is, households receiving benefits through the Massachusetts Department of Transitional Assistance and the Massachusetts Health Connector.

Cancellation policy

Cancellation policy for Hitchcock’s seasonal programs: You may cancel your registration for any of our programs up to a week prior to the program’s start date to receive a refund minus a 10% administrative fee. If you cancel within 7 days or less of the program’s start date, we cannot offer a refund unless we are able to fill your spot in the program.

COVID-19 Safety

Read our complete COVID-19 Program Participant Guidelines.

Our programs are designed to be fun and engaging and above all safe. The COVID-19 program guidelines are designed to help protect everyone as we meet the strict health and safety requirements of the CDC and our state. Please take the time to read the information thoroughly. If you feel that you or your child(ren) cannot follow these guidelines, we ask that you wait until these restrictions have been lifted to join one of our programs or events. We may change our guidelines to reflect new guidance from CDC and Massachusetts.
