Philosophy

The Eager Beaver Program is designed to provide a wide range of recreational experiences for the youth of Abington at a minimum cost. Each two-week session provides various activities that will culminate on the second Friday of each session, so in essence each session will be somewhat different than the others. The Eager Beaver Program will be based at Island Grove, but will utilize many of the various facilities around the town, in order to provide a broad scope of experiences.
