Friday Night Live (FNL) - FNL: All Events 2/2, 3/1, 4/5, 5/3, 6/7 ($15 Discount)
FRIDAY NIGHT LIVEDates: February 2, March 1, April 5, May 3, and June 7Time: 7:00 – 9:30 pm (unless otherwise posted)Eligible Participants: Must be residents of Carlisle who are in grades 5 – 8 whether at Carlisle Public School, Private School, or Home Schooled.Coordinator: Carlisle Youth CommissionCARLISLE YOUTH COMMISSION – FRIDAY NIGHT LIVEThe Carlisle Youth Commission (CYC) is a town committee made up of five (5) to eight (8) Carlisle parents/guardians. The primary goal of the CYC is to provide safe, all-inclusive, and fun monthly FNL events for Carlisle middle school-aged residents (grades 5-8) from public and private schools, as well as those who are home-schooled, to socialize with their peers. These monthly events have become known as Friday Night Live (FNL). FNL is typically held on the first Friday of the month in the Corey Gym and Exercise Room at the Carlisle Public School from 7:00 – 9:30 p.m., unless pre-empted by a scheduling conflict or occurring on a snow day. FNL is run by members of the CYC with help from parent chaperones. Although FNL is held at the Carlisle Public School, FNL is sponsored and partially funded by the Town of Carlisle rather than by the Carlisle Public School. FNL events vary from month to month with music for dancing, basketball, ping pong, checkers/chess, arts and crafts, and occasional contests. Sometimes a movie is shown, other times we have a DJ for dancing. Occasionally, we have themed events such as an obstacle course challenge, dodgeball tournament and/or karaoke competition. In an effort to streamline the registration process, the Carlisle Youth Commission has changed the registration and payment method for Friday Night Live (FNL) events. Even if you have already registered your child for 2023-24 FNL events you will need to re-register your child again. The fee per FNL event is $15, this helps to defray the cost for our DJ, decorations, SWAG, custodians, equipment and pizza, snacks and drinks. Once registered for an event, your child will receive tickets at the door, which they can use as collateral for pizza, snacks, seltzer and/or photos at the photo booth. In order to attend any FNL event, your eligible child MUST BE REGISTERED IN ADVANCE. WE WILL NOT PERMIT ANY CHILD THAT IS NOT FULLY REGISTERED IN ADVANCE TO ATTEND AN FNL EVENT. IF YOUR CHILD IS NOT FULLY REGISTERED, THEY WILL BE TURNED AWAY AT THE DOOR AND WILL BE REQUIRED TO CALL YOU TO PICK THEM BACK UP. WE REALLY WOULD LIKE TO PREVENT THIS FROM EVER HAPPENING – SO PLEASE REGISTER YOUR CHILD IN ADVANCE. THERE WILL BE NO REGISTRATION AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR. All parents of middle school-aged children who participate in FNL are obligated to chaperone at least one (1) FNL during the school year. Dates with reminders about FNL are announced in the Carlisle Mosquito, The Buzz, and in Carlisle Middle School Announcements. For detailed information about Friday Night Live, click here (PDF). Financial Assistance is available by reaching out to one of the co-chairs, either Lauree Cameron Eckler at lacameroneckler@comcast.net or Stefani Keene at stefanikeene@gmail.com. 2023-24 CARLISLE YOUTH COMMISSION Lauree Cameron Eckler, Co-ChairStefani Keene, Co-ChairChelsea MascariAmy SmackHeather Wright CHAPERONING AT FRIDAY NIGHT LIVE The Carlisle Youth Commission (“CYC”) needs ten (10) to fifteen (15) parents/guardians (over 18 years of age) to operate Friday Night Live (“FNL”) events and activities. By registering your child for FNL, you agree to submit a CORI, and once cleared, your sign-up to chaperone at least one FNL event during the 2023-24 Carlisle Public School year will be approved. Please note if you already have a valid CORI on file with Carlisle Public School you will not need to complete a new CORI.

Garden Classes: Open to All Levels of Gardeners from Beginner to Expert Dates: Mondays, April 1-October 28 (No Class on 4/15, 5/27, 9/2, 10/14) Time: 10:00-11:30am Who: Everyone Welcome (Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an Adult) Fee: Free Location: Carlisle Center Park Instructors: Alison Saylor, Joan Allen, and many other Master Gardeners Friends of Center Park invite you to join Massachusetts Master Gardeners in a “hands-on and how-to” series of classes where creating and maintaining sun and shade gardens and landscapes will be discussed and demonstrated in a real garden setting rather than a classroom. Topics will follow the natural cycle of the season and include designing garden beds, starting seeds, dividing perennials, taking cuttings, making, and using compost, watering, weeding, pruning, trimming, edging, identifying, labeling, and nurturing soil and plants. A new initiative is to expand the Pollinator Garden, plant a willow living fence and native shrubs in our Hügelkultur planting berm, and add to the newly established Woodland Garden beds and pathways. Bring a chair to just sit nearby and observe, if you prefer, as the "hands-on" portion of this class is entirely optional. Please dress for the weather, and bring garden gloves, your favorite bug repellent, hydration for yourself, and clippers if you have them. In case of rain: Class cancelled if pouring rain, but feel free to still attend if just a mild drizzle, as overcast and damp is ideal for gardening weather. For program information, contact Alison Saylor via email at Friends@carlislecenterpark.org.

Garden Classes: Open to All Levels of Gardeners from Beginner to Expert Dates: Mondays, April 1-October 28 (No Class on 4/15, 5/27, 9/2, 10/14) Time: 10:00-11:30am Who: Everyone Welcome (Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an Adult) Fee: Free Location: Carlisle Center Park Instructors: Alison Saylor, Joan Allen, and many other Master Gardeners Friends of Center Park invite you to join Massachusetts Master Gardeners in a “hands-on and how-to” series of classes where creating and maintaining sun and shade gardens and landscapes will be discussed and demonstrated in a real garden setting rather than a classroom. Topics will follow the natural cycle of the season and include designing garden beds, starting seeds, dividing perennials, taking cuttings, making, and using compost, watering, weeding, pruning, trimming, edging, identifying, labeling, and nurturing soil and plants. A new initiative is to expand the Pollinator Garden, plant a willow living fence and native shrubs in our Hügelkultur planting berm, and add to the newly established Woodland Garden beds and pathways. Bring a chair to just sit nearby and observe, if you prefer, as the "hands-on" portion of this class is entirely optional. Please dress for the weather, and bring garden gloves, your favorite bug repellent, hydration for yourself, and clippers if you have them. In case of rain: Class cancelled if pouring rain, but feel free to still attend if just a mild drizzle, as overcast and damp is ideal for gardening weather. For program information, contact Alison Saylor via email at Friends@carlislecenterpark.org.

Garden Classes: Open to All Levels of Gardeners from Beginner to Expert (April - October) - Garden Classes: Open to All Levels of Gardeners from Beginner to Expert
Garden Classes: Open to All Levels of Gardeners from Beginner to Expert Dates: Mondays, April 1-October 28 (No Class on 4/15, 5/27, 9/2, 10/14) Time: 10:00-11:30am Who: Everyone Welcome (Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an Adult) Fee: Free Location: Carlisle Center Park Instructors: Alison Saylor, Joan Allen, and many other Master Gardeners Friends of Center Park invite you to join Massachusetts Master Gardeners in a “hands-on and how-to” series of classes where creating and maintaining sun and shade gardens and landscapes will be discussed and demonstrated in a real garden setting rather than a classroom. Topics will follow the natural cycle of the season and include designing garden beds, starting seeds, dividing perennials, taking cuttings, making, and using compost, watering, weeding, pruning, trimming, edging, identifying, labeling, and nurturing soil and plants. A new initiative is to expand the Pollinator Garden, plant a willow living fence and native shrubs in our Hügelkultur planting berm, and add to the newly established Woodland Garden beds and pathways. Bring a chair to just sit nearby and observe, if you prefer, as the "hands-on" portion of this class is entirely optional. Please dress for the weather, and bring garden gloves, your favorite bug repellent, hydration for yourself, and clippers if you have them. In case of rain: Class cancelled if pouring rain, but feel free to still attend if just a mild drizzle, as overcast and damp is ideal for gardening weather. For program information, contact Alison Saylor via email at Friends@carlislecenterpark.org.

We share and rotate court time. We play in a supportive, positive environment.

We will limit the numbers of participants. You will check in each night. Open to those from surrounding towns.
