Fall Programs at the Salvation Army

Summer is over and the fall programs at the Cleveland Temple Corps of The Salvation Army located at 17625 Grovewood Ave. are up and running.  As always our recreational programs are going full force with the gym, exercise classes, game room and computer lab. The gym is open from 4:00 pm until 8:00 each week day and the game room and computer lab open up at 5:00pm. On Saturday the facilities are open from 10:00 until 3:00.

The Learning Zone Afterschool program began last month and now has over 40 students from five neighborhood schools. If you have a child at Memorial, OH Perry, St. Johns, St. Jerome’s or Lakeshore Intergenerational School and would like to have your child participate in the program please give us a call. The children receive homework help, tutoring, recreations, and enrichment opportunities in the areas of music, art, and science with a strong emphasis on reading. There is a small  monthly fee for the program and we would love to have your child participate.

Please mark your calendars for our upcoming events and activities. On Thursday, October 23rd from 4:00 to 6:00, the Learning Zone will celebrate “Lights on for Afterschool”. This event shines a spotlight on afterschool programs around the state, to educate state legislators about the importance of this type of program for children. Please come and see our center and help send the message!  Also mark your calendars for our Annual Fall Festival.  This is our fourth year for this event and each year it gets better and better. It is a great opportunity for families to enjoy this time of year together. The Fall Festival will be held Tuesday October 28th from 5:30-7:30. Another annual event is our Christmas Assistance sign up. This year the sign up will be November 10th  –November 14th.  Please call us at (216) 692-1388 for more information.

As always you are invited to join us on Sunday for our worship service at 10:45 and Sunday School beginning at 9:30am,  Women’s Bible study on Mondays at 9:00am, and Club 3:16 for children which is every Tuesday beginning at 5:30. There are many more opportunities and activities for you to become involved with at  the Salvation Army Cleveland Temple Corps, please give us a call or stop by to learn more.
