TOTS ON TUESDAYS

Tots on Tuesdays is a special day as HSC plans age-appropriate activities for toddlers to enjoy. 
Each week is different and there is no commitment to how often you attend on a Tuesday. 

Having a HSC Membership is the best option for admission, but you are welcome to try it out first. Stop by in the morning or early afternoon to try it out.
