Event Description: About Day for Kids Unlike many other countries, America does not have an official day to celebrate its children. Boys & Girls Clubs of Larimer County, along with the support of other leading youth-serving organizations, is working to change that by establishing a Saturday in September each year as Boys & Girls Clubs Day for Kids. Created as a day to foster relationships between adults and children, the mission of BGC Day for Kids is to establish a day to celebrate and honor American children through the gift of meaningful time. Research shows that when adults spend meaningful time with kids it helps them develop a positive self-image and a sense of belonging, usefulness and purpose. Now, more than ever, BGC Day for Kids provides adults and kids an opportunity to take a break from their busy lives and celebrate the wonder of life and the fulfillment of spending time together. Boys & Girls Clubs of Larimer County Day for Kids, is the day we devote our hearts and our minds to our children. STEAMfest Boys & Girls Clubs of Larimer County in partnership with the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery provide the premier Northern Colorado STEAM event for youth and their families. This FREE event unites local STEM and STEAM related offerings around a day of celebration, hands on STEAM activities, and FUN! As a nation, youth proficiency in STEAM subjects are dropping. STEAM education is closely linked with our nation’s economic prosperity in the modern global economy. STEAMfest provides opportunities for youth to engage in fun, hands on activities that can help them with academic achievement and encourage furthering their education in science, technology, engineering, art, and math. The entire community is invited to come out and enjoy the day!
