Pay-What-You-Can Program for AYCC Youth Athletics
The AYCC’s Pay-What-You-Can Program (PWYC) for youth athletics offers a flexible payment model, allowing youth to register and pay in $10 increments from $0 to $100. This initiative ensures that all youth can participate, regardless of their financial situation. The actual cost to run most programs is $80 per child, which covers essentials like sports supplies, t-shirts, staff, utilities, and officials.
The AYCC encourages those who can afford to pay the full $80 or more to help offset costs for families in need. Any contributions exceeding $80 are tax-deductible donations, supporting the sustainability of the program and helping provide equal opportunities for all participants.
The City of Waterville’s Police Department have chosen to fundraise for the PWYC! Support the initiative by clicking the button below.
AYCC's Unified Champion Club
The adult Unified Champion Club (UCC) is designed to promote inclusion and teamwork by bringing together individuals with and without intellectual disabilities to participate in recreational activities, fitness classes, and social events. This club fosters an inclusive environment where participants can build friendships, improve physical health, and develop social skills while engaging in fun, community-centered activities all at no additional cost to the family! The UCC empowers adults of all abilities to be active, valued members of the community, embracing the spirit of unity, respect, and mutual support.
