2022 PRC Winter Program Guide

THE GREG MOORE YOUTH CENTRE WELCOME TO

The Greg Moore Youth Centre (GMYC), located at 11925 Haney Place, recently celebrated its 20 Year Anniversary with a tribute video full of stories from staff and participants who credit the GMYC as a key part of their personal development. Since opening in 2001, the GMYC has provided a safe and fun environment for youth to participate in recreation, connect with peers and mentors, develop leadership skills and to make a difference in our community.

LOUNGE The Lounge at the GMYC is perfect for socializing with friends, meeting new people and hanging out with staff. Near the heart of the Lounge, you will find Air Hockey, Ping Pong, Foosball, Billiards and space for playing cards or boardgames. For youth looking to log on to their social media, work on homework, polish a resume or simply browse, the GMYC has a Computer Lab. Other amenities in this area of the GMYC include a room with musical equipment (drums, guitars, etc) and even a Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 for the gamers!

Even after two decades, the GMYC remains one of the only facilities of its kind in British Columbia. It was the recipient of the BC Parks and Recreation Facility of the Year, Accessibility & Inclusiveness Award, as well as the Child and Youth Friendly Community Award for Innovation. The GMYC is much more than a building - we hope you will visit to discover the adventures and relationships that await! ACTIVE AREA It doesn't get much more exciting than the Active Area at the GMYC! The Gymnasium is perfect for drop-in and registered programming like floor hockey, basketball and soccer, but is also often used as a gathering space and venue for community events. The Teaching Kitchen is multi-purpose in nature, serving as a great location for culinary programming as well as a concession stand for recreating youth. Emerging adults, youth and young adults travel from around the Lower Mainland to check out the GMYC's most popular amenity... the Indoor Skate & Scooter Park! Try a new adventure with support from trained staff on the Rock Climbing & Bouldering Wall! Learn the ropes and challenge yourself to improve from climb to climb.
