Sterling House Community Center Inc

Programs: Athletics & games - sterling house athletics provides opportunities for youth to participate in sports and games to develop skills, physical development and coordination. The program also supports healthy social-emotional development through teamwork, sportsmanship, respect for yourself and others. In addition, the program provides volunteer opportunities for community members to step into coaching roles, as they give back to their community and lead the next generation of athletes in our town.

preschool (child development) - this department houses our accredited preschool, after school program and summer camp. For all of these programs, we encourage personal growth emotionally, intellectually and physically. Our youth learn about themselves, about sharing, cooperation and the skills needed to both lead and follow. Each program supports good learning habits and preparation for formal education in addition to a sense of the greater community and their place within it.

day-camp - from 4 year olds through teenagers, our mission is to create a safe environment where campers can have fun and feel good about themselves while making new friends and discovering the world around them. It is a traditional outdoor camp with arts and crafts, swimming, playground time, and athletic activities encouraging physical activity and healthy development. The counselor-in-training and jr. Counselor programs also support leadership development in our high school aged youth.

resource connection - community services: sterling house operates a food pantry supporting over 4,000 local residents with basic needs assistance. Our resource workers also provide advice, assistance, information and referrals to support families with personal challenges. Other support initiatives such as flu shots, health clinics, back-to-school supplies, pet food distribution and holiday support occur throughout the year.
