Hello Phoenix Knights supporters,
The Phoenix Knights continue their quest and appreciate your support of game-based youth programming! Onward!
**UPDATE: No Programs Tuesday or Thursday this coming week!**
1. The Schedule:
Monday 3/31: First Baptist Church (95 High St, Belfast)
Ages 7 – 11yrs 2:30pm-5:30pm **please note the earlier end time on Monday**
Friday 4/4/25: UU Church (367 Miller St, Belfast)Ages 12 – 18yrs 2:30pm-6pm
**NO Programming This Week on Tuesday or Thursday**
— The UU Church is no longer available for us on Tuesdays and Thursdays, due to an increase in church programming as Spring begins.
— We are hoping to hold programming at the First Church – they are very excited to support PKG! – but we need liability insurance before they can host us.
— We hope to start up Tuesday/Thursday programming again by the week of April 7th.
**Please note NO programming on Wednesday moving forward.**
2. Volunteers
We’re looking for Volunteers:
Tuesdays from 3-5pm
and
Fridays from 3-5pm
as well as “on call” volunteers who can show up in case weather, sickness or other issues prevent our regular staff and volunteers from supporting programming.
During Programs: We continue to need support preparing simple lunches and snacks for the kids as well as welcoming families and supporting programming.
Please respond with your availability and we’ll schedule you in!
We are also looking for volunteers to join Committees and help with:
Legal Advice (especially non-profit guidance and insurance)
Finance and Fundraising
Cooking and Food Preparation
Please reach out if you’re interested in joining a Committee!
3. Location
We are still searching for a more permanent home!

Bread, lunch meat, cheese, low-sugar jelly, healthy snacks, fruit and vegetable snacks (carrots, celery, mandarins, apples, etc; we do not need any more donations of peanut butter)
