Join the Seeds of Promise / GRPD Boys & Girls Youth Skating Program!
Registration is open—register ASAP to secure your spot!
Seeds of Promise, in partnership with the Grand Rapids Police Department (GRPD), is excited to invite youth to join our Boys & Girls Youth Skating Program. This program is designed to provide children with a safe, fun, and active environment where they can develop skating skills, teamwork, and confidence while connecting with peers and community mentors.
For returning players, registration will be open next week through March 18th. If your child plans to participate again next year, it is essential to complete registration by March 18th to guarantee their spot. After this date, we will begin accepting new families, and returning players risk losing their positions in the program.
New families who wish to join can now be added to our waitlist. While completing the application does not automatically secure a spot, it allows Seeds of Promise and GRPD to organize acceptance based on availability. Each year, priority is given to returning players, and new applicants are accepted as space allows. To join the waitlist, please fill out the online application here: Youth Skating Program Application.
Our program is more than just skating, it’s an opportunity for youth to build life skills, connect with mentors, and engage in positive recreational activities within the Southtown–Madison Square neighborhood and the greater Grand Rapids community. Participants enjoy structured practice sessions, fun skill-building exercises, and the chance to create lasting friendships.
For questions or more information, please contact Regenail Thomas at our office by phone or email: regenailtxt@gamil.com, 603-531-2375. We’re happy to provide guidance on registration, program details, and how your child can participate.
Don’t miss this opportunity to keep your child active, engaged, and part of a vibrant community program. Register now to join the Seeds of Promise / GRPD Boys & Girls Youth Skating Program and be part of a fun, safe, and rewarding experience!
