The Interact Club of Whistler is for youth ages 12 – 18. The group usually meet every Wednesday during the school year from 4:15 p.m. - 5 p.m. For more information check out the group’s Facebook page.

The rules at The YC are simple

All local and visiting youth are asked to respect themselves, respect others and respect the space. Drugs and alcohol are strictly prohibited.

There are YC staff present when the centre is open. The staff are there to listen, hang out, play pool and connect youth to more specific help and resources if needed.

The YC has been operating for over 15 years and is a Resort Municipality of Whistler program.

Come on in! We’d love to meet you.
