What started as a small gathering has quickly grown into one of the hottest spots for teens in Amarillo, with over 300 teens attending our recent events. Every week is packed with games, food, music, prizes, and opportunities for teens to connect in a safe, positive environment.
If you have teens in your family, church, organization, or community who are looking for a place to have fun and make new friends, we’d love to have them join us!
Feel free to share it with anyone who might be interested.
Thank you for helping us spread the word and invest in the next generation!
