Evening Programs
Evening Drop-In Program (during the academic year)
At BGC Dieppe, we believe that every evening holds the potential for new adventures! Our thoughtfully designed evening programs provide a safe and supportive environment where youth can discover life-changing opportunities, form meaningful friendships, and develop valuable skills.
Our evening programs serve children and youth in the community between the ages of 7-18. You can find us throughout the school year Monday to Friday from 6:30pm until 8:00pm.
Want to sign up? Its easy. Visit BGC Dieppe in person and ask one of our staff members for a membership form. Once you’ve completed the form, there is a small $10 fee to cover the activities for the year (some outings may require a small additional fee). Once the form is complete and the fee is paid, you can pick the programs that you are interested in and fill out the individual program registration forms*.
*Please note that starting November 2024, we require individual registration for each program in order to ensure proper planning and that we have enough supplies for those in attendance. Links for individual registration can be found below.
