The Friendship Club is an after-school recreation program for children in grades 1-5 attending Albany elementary schools (Marin, Cornell, and Ocean View). The program provides a well-supervised environment for children to make friends, enhance self-esteem and develop social skills. Friendship Club offers a variety of activities from indoor/outdoor games, afternoon snack as well as a supervised homework period daily from 4:00-5:00 pm. Our program fosters an atmosphere that allows children to be entertained in a safe after-school setting. We are located in Ocean View Park, 900 Buchanan St. in Albany.
Program hours are 1:55 pm to 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday, with a full capacity of 55 students. A minimum attendance of three days per week is required, and morning care and drop-in services are not available. Services include daily transportation from Albany elementary schools to our facility.
