The Youth Center's goal is to provide a safe, healthy environment with programs that promote the well-being of youth. We strive to assist the youth in acquiring the knowledge, skills and character that will enable them to become independent, productive, and contributing members of society. We enable service men and women, and civilians to focus on the Military Mission by providing programs and services that create a sense of family and well-being.

Youth must be in grades 6th thru 12th and registered with Parent Central Services. Youth Center members must be prepared to sign-in and sign-out and present their CYS ID cards in order to access the Middle School & Teen Center, check out game equipment, and participate in special activities (field trips, dances).
