Throughout the school year, the City of Rochester R-Center's After School in the Park Program provides an engaging and nurturing after school environment for city youth in grades K-6. Conveniently located at Cobb’s Hill Park, kids can take in an array of fun fitness, educational and arts activities, get help with homework, enjoy a free hot dinner and best of all, make lasting friendships.

For just $85 per week, youth can receive all-day care through this program during the winter and spring school recesses. The program is also available to youth living outside the city. Interested non-city residents should call for pricing and availability.
