Youth Programming Division
The Youth Programming Division of the Burlington Recreation and Parks Department was formed in the Fall of 2007. The division has become one of the strongest divisions in the Department and continues to grow with the addition of new programs. These new programs are being developed and implemented monthly to target youth obesity and to help develop healthy lifestyles and habits for today's youth. All activities and classes are to give kids new experiences as well as build and strengthen relationships with friends and families in a safe environment. Below is a summary of programs offered throughout the year.
