Ketchikan Afterschool Program - KAP

We just realized Friday is a USA v Australia World Cup game! We would like to invite all students in Ketchikan-that are rising 6th through rising 9th graders to come watch the game at KAP! Game starts at 11:00, so stop by between 10:30-11:00. We just received a huge donation of tortilla chips and nacho sauce from a parent, so we will have a ton of perfect game day snacks. Students who want to attend that are not a part of our Summer program should plan on being picked up following the end of the game! No need to register ❤️🤍💙

KAP Staff: Hey guys, just line up real quick and take a totally normal regular pic so we can just keep track of who is leaving….

KAP Kids:….

A huge thank-you to Alaska Children's Trust for their investment in KAP this summer! ACT recently awarded KAP with a $1,000 cultural activities grant in support of our youth fishing excursions.

We're so excited to get out on the water this summer and see what the kids can catch!

The next staff member we would like to introduce is already a friendly face to our KAP regulars, Heather has been with us all school year and we are so excited she’ll be spending time with us this Summer too!

Hey, my name is Heather Newbill. I was born and raised here, I’ve been working in professional childcare for about 9 or 10 years, in many different ways. I love fishing, camping, hiking, and my cat Knuckles Sammy. I can’t wait to have a blast and get to know all the kids this summer!

Our next staff member we’d like to introduce is Mereane!

Hi my name is Mereane I am 20 years old, I’ve lived in Ketchikan for about 9 years now. I love to be outdoors camping is one of my favorite things to do! I’m very very social might act shy for a little but won’t last long. I enjoy working with kids after my first year this year working at Ketchikan charter school! I’m so excited to meet all of you!

Introducing our next Summer Camp Facilitator, Shania!

Born and raised in Alaska, I’m a proud wife, homeowner, and mom to a sweet, energetic 2-year-old daughter. I have a deep love for nature that sparks my creativity, my days are all about exploring the great outdoors and making beautiful, handmade things. I also love connecting with my community and sharing my passion for creativity and nature — finding joy in both new adventures and the special moments with others.

We are SO excited to start our Summer Camp next week! We have an amazing team this year 🤩 and wanted to introduce them!

Hi, my name is Rebekah Beckett and I am thrilled to be exploring with Ketchikan’s youth this summer! I am an elementary teacher and mother of two. I enjoy traveling, competitive games, and spending time outdoors.

We are itching to get back outside again and it looks like Monday *might* not be terrible ;) To reserve your spot make sure your student is registered for KAP at www.kapalaska.com and email [email protected] to reserve your spot! 8 total spots available. Rides and lunch available upon request!!!
