After-School Enrichment Programs in Bellingham & Seattle:
Every season we offer more than a dozen after-school enrichment programs at different schools and parks! Our public after-school programs are open to kids from any school. Other programs will be at specific schools for kids enrolled in those schools. See more details about public after-school programs.
We offer two different types of after-school enrichment programs: 
Adventure Quest and 
Sword Games. In Adventure Quest, we often offer one “Quest” storyline for 4-10 continuous weeks, with each week a chapter in the story that the Questers help to create. See more about Adventure Quest.
