TeenXtreme

A whole catalogue of exciting activities designed especially for 7th–9th graders.

Every day of your week brings a new and different adventure, and each of the four TeenXtreme locations has its own palette of activities to choose from. One day you could be making jewelry and playing in a basketball tournament; the next you might find yourself on a trail in the woods, cooking up a gourmet lunch outdoors.

Programs will be held at Blacklick Metro Park.
