The Den is an after school hangout spot for teens in grades 6 – 12. You can play pool, ping pong, foosball, shuffleboard, air hockey, surf the internet in the computer room, get food at the cafe, make use of our art supplies, put together an album with your band in the recording studio, or pick and play from our huge selection of video games. The Den is a cool place to come make friends, get help with homework, ask for advice, volunteer, or just chill out.
