PCYC Crestmead

PCYC Crestmead was introduced to the community 2009 in response to a specific need for youth engagement in Crestmead and the surrounding community. This venture was supported by the Logan City Council, the Community Renewal Program, and the Australian Government’s Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government.

The Club has been established with a program-specific charter, offering a range of early intervention, crime prevention, personal development and welfare programs targeting youth‘at risk’ and their immediate influences. PCYC Crestmead is leading the way in providing youth programs tailored to meet the needs of its community and offers a range of activities and programs for members of the Crestmead, Marsden and Browns Plains communities.

Members of the community can come down and participate in the range of activities on hand such as Boxing,  jujitsu, Karate, Tiny Tots, Zumba.
