We provide a safe, nurturing place for children to attend quality programming beyond the schools’ hours of operation.  We strive to help youth reach their full potential by allowing them to explore their physical, social and intellectual interests in a safe and fun setting.  The culture of our programs emphasizes quality relationships and a healthy respect for individuality.  We provide enough structure to keep everyone safe, but we also offer an open atmosphere that allows children to explore their interests in groups or on their own.

The River Otters before school program operates on normal school days at the Epping Elementary School gym in the mornings for youth in grades K-7.  The program opens at 6:45 A.M. and runs until students leave for their classrooms at 8:20 A.M.! Kindergarteners are escorted by staff.  At the program the youth are able to finish homework, work on arts and crafts projects, play games in the gym and use the playground.  The youth are able to eat breakfast with the school breakfast program.

The after-school program operate on normal school days at the Recreation Center for grades K-7.  The program operates from school dismissal until 5:45 P.M.  EES students will be dismissed to the Gym at close of school, where our staff will be waiting to walk them to the Recreation Center at the foot of the hill by the High Schoo.  Kindergarten students will be picked up at their classrooms to be escorted to the gym before walking down to the Recreation Center.  If weather is bad, we will utilize the Rec. Bus to transport students to the program.  We will continue to group children by grades, with K-2, 3 & 4 and 5-7 having designated rooms at the Recreation Center.  Students have a snack and then head outside on grounds or head to the EES or SAU fields and playgrounds, to the EES gym during scheduled days, or participate in many activities that the Recreation Center has to offer, including art, music, cooking, computers, Wii, games and much more!
