WAK Youth Programming is a FREE program for all youth in grade 6 thru 12 (age 11 to 18) in the Smiths Falls Area. The Program is held at 25 Main Street West in Smiths Falls. This program is possible thanks to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County, and Town of Smiths Falls. The two agencies have come together to ensure that youth have access to free and fun services within the town. Food is provided for free at every drop-in.
