Registration for Ultimate Spring youth programs is now open
With Spring upon us (finally!) it’s time to think about getting young Ultimate Frisbee players back on the field. BUDA is ready with fun, COVID safe programs for youth ages 5-19 in multiple towns across Eastern MA, including Newton.
- Elementary and middle school age weekend programs are happening in quite a few locations, including: Newton: Grades 1-3, Grades 4-5, Grades 6-8
- Girls Day is a great way to introduce girls to the sport at a free 2-hour clinic on Saturday, May 1st. If your player has experience, they’ll get loads of tips from top notch club women players. If they’re new to the sport, we have coaches ready to make it a super fun learning day. We encourage girls to bring a friend, both to make it a more social event and to introduce more friends to the sport we love. Info and (FREE) registration here.
Celebrate Earth Week with Newton Students
Green Newton is sponsoring a week of fun and action for kids during Earth Week and we are kicking it off with a poster making event so you can show the world how you are All in for Climate Action!
All you will need is paper and markers, crayons or other media of your choice to create your own poster design to display in a window of your home. The theme is “All in for Climate Action!” Join us on Monday, April 19 from 4-5pm and share your ideas while making posters together. When you’re done, take a picture of your poster and send it to info@greennewton.org. A selection of poster designs may be chosen to be featured in Green Newton’s e-newsletter and/or displayed in windows of local businesses. This activity will be led by Green Newton’s Youth Leader and Newton North senior, Coral Lin.
If you are interested in attending this free virtual event, please R.S.V.P. to marcia@greennewton.org by April 17. For some good ideas for posters visit the Green Newton Take Action! tool.
