HUTCHINSON, Kan. — David Foster with the Hutchinson YMCA said there will be a special Saturday Night at the Y event for middle schoolers this Saturday in Hutchinson.
"It will be from 6 to 8 p.m.," Foster said. "That's one hour shorter than normal, but we are lucky to be having it at Salt City Splash."
This is a continuation of the Saturday nights at the Y that have been going on throughout the school year.
"It is for any 6th, 7th or 8th grader, that would count this school year," Foster said. "If they were in 6th, 7th or 8th grade the school year that just ended, they would still be eligible to come. We'll restart the school year in September. That would be anybody in the community in Hutchinson and Reno County. If they've already been to an event, all they need to do is sign in and if they would be a new student attending, they would just need to have a parent, when they drop them off, fill out a registration form and a waiver and they would be good to go."
The event will be back at the Y in August.
"It is something that we're offering throughout the summer," Foster said. "We had such great success with it during the school year. We want people to know and kids to know they still have that option to come and have some fun at least one night during the summer."
Foster said so far, they have averaged 125 students per event.
