Visiting Community Youth Network - Bonavista

In an earlier post, we referenced the Community Youth Network - Clarenville as being newly established.  One Community Youth Network in this region that has been operating for a while is the one in Bonavista.  This intiative was introduced in August 2007.

The space itself is very large with a number of different areas, including an area for playing instruments and one for playing pool.  There is also a seating area and a computer area.

Art plays a big role at the centre with a number of floor mats painted onto the floor.  There's also a large pot of aluminum cans cut as flowers (pictured above)!

Referred to as BAYNet (Bonavista Area Youth Network), this organization covers the geographic area from Bonavista to Charleston, 37 communities in total.  They offer a variety of programs and activities, from a tutoring program to Battle of the Bands!
