ABOUT OUR TEEN CENTER

The Chelan Teen Center represents a long-term partnership with the City of Chelan and the Lake Chelan United Methodist Church. Our flagship program provides a safe and relaxing environment for teens to enjoy a snack, study, socialize, listen to music, play games, and connect with positive adults.

Inside both Teen Centers, we have a variety of entertainment to enjoy, such as pool tables, Foosball, air hockey, ping pong, video games, board games and much more.

We also have a clothing closet and a hygiene closet at both teen centers- free to students.

If you have a heart for serving teens, we want to connect you to the Teen Center!

VOLUNTEER AT THE TEEN CENTER

Whether it is hanging out, leading an activity, or preparing snacks or a meal…we have a spot for you on our team!

Our primary needs for volunteers typically include:

  • Volunteers: Adults who can socialize with & tutor teens during hours of operation (3:00-6:30pm-Chelan, and 12:00-4pm-Manson)

  • Food Prep/Donation: Community members who want to prepare dinner for 30-35 people.  And volunteers who want to pick up the donated meals around 4:45pm for the Chelan Teen Center, and 11:45am for the Manson Teen Center.
