CYC
Cockeysville Youth Center
CYC IS A PARENT RUN ACTIVITY that benefits the students of Cockeysville Middle School, but is operated by the parents of CMS and the Cockeysville Recreation Council. This is a CRC sponsored event NOT a BCPS sponsored event.
CYC is a fun and safe activity that typically occurs one Friday a month from 7:00pm - 9:30pm for middle schoolers to hangout with current friends and make new ones. It is a $10 entrance fee paid cash only at the door. Most CYC events will have a concession stand and warm food for purchase (CASH ONLY). Activities include sports in the gym, ping pong, DJ for dancing, and other fun games. CYC students are permitted to bring middle school friends from other schools. See guest info below.
Please be sure to read through all the information below regarding codes of conduct and volunteer information.
Every student must have a parent/guardian volunteer at least one time each year. (Your child(ren) has free entry the night you volunteer).
Please sign up for as many dates as possible. We require a minimum of 25 volunteers for the event not to be canceled.
