The Chapel Hill Missionary Baptist Church's project goals will be achieved by offering young people opportunities to focus on positive, life-developing activities such as: visual arts exploration and crafts; dance; vocal and instrumental music; academic enrichment; core subject tutoring; academic application projects and field trips; positive social interaction through board and electronic games; health and nutrition awareness; physical fitness activities; and more. The project will service at-risk children from the ages of 8 - 17 and will be open after school, on Saturdays, and during the summer. NCA/NCF
