Adventure Club

We are enthusiastic about providing quality before and after school care for children. We work diligently to offer enriching activities that enhance the development of children socially, emotionally, cognitively and physically.

Adventure Club takes pride in its high-quality staff, including an Administrative Team, Site Facilitators, and office support. Adventure Club has many fun and enthusiastic part-time staff members facilitating activities with 650+ children enrolled in the program. The staff-to-child ratio is typically 1 to 16.

Each school has Site Facilitators in charge of the program. All full-time Site Facilitators have bachelor’s degrees. All Part-Time Site Facilitators have at least 6 hours in child-related course work, as well as experience working with groups of children. Site Assistants are primarily students in the University of Missouri College of Education who are seeking additional experience working with school-age children.
