Join The Club!

Goshen Friends offers several enrichment activities as part of the Join the Club program.  Below are descriptions of the clubs which will be offered to Lower School children during a six-week period, beginning the week of October 8.  Please note the dates and times each club meets.  All clubs will run from 3:15 to 4:15 on the specified dates.

Sign up for the computer club and learn to create a database that allows you to keep information (player’s name, team, year of card, value, etc.) about all your sports cards. We will obtain this information using the site: www.beckett.com. We will provide the cards and you get to keep them.  You will be able to print your own personal sports card as well.  Let’s start collecting!
