It’s the summer, no more school for a few months, so what is there to do at MCAS Iwakuni?
Well, there’s a lot to do, and here’s a few things to consider.

The Youth & Teen Centers are a great place to chill out with your friends, watch a movie, and most importantly, there’s air conditioning. The new Teen Center has a pretty awesome movie theater, gaming platforms, music equipment, and computers to keep in touch with friends and family not here in Iwakuni. If you are not enrolled at the Youth or Teen centers, ask your parents to accompany you there to enroll, and enjoy all they have to offer.

The Library has hours and hours of fun things to do. You can use their free computers, check out books, learn how to use the awesome 3D printer to make unique items. Movies and games for Playstation, Xbox, Wii, and switch can be checked out from the library, as well as Kindles that can be taken home for up to three weeks.

Youth Sports has a ton of fun activities to experience this summer. There are a number of camps and seasons of basketball, soccer, and dance classes. Afraid you are not ready for the next Youth Sports sign-up? Get ready by signing up for the Conditioning Camp from June 22 - July 22.
