Welcome To The Keane Foundation Website
The Richard M. Keane Foundation was established to create a 9/11 Memorial Sports Center in the Wethersfield community. Richard Keane and two other Wethersfield men died in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11/2001. A Sports Center in their memory is a positive and wonderful way to commemorate life’s happy events, as well as to remember lives lost.
The purpose of the Foundation in collaboration with the Town of Wethersfield, is to provide a safe and fun environment in which youth can come together to participate in athletic, academic, and social programs with the support and guidance of caring adults.

Spring 2022 Keane on Kids Fall Programs
Keane on Kids After School Enrichment Programs
Happy New Year!! The Keane on Kids After School Enrichment program is in the midst of its 5th year and going strong! The 2021 Fall Session had 570 enrollments, and 363 unique enrollments. We started the year off slow because of instructor availability but we are back to almost our typical number of programs for the 2022 Winter/Spring session.
We recently realized that many families have only known virtual school until this year and don’t know anything about the after school program. For that reason, we have been working on getting information out about our program to all the Elementary school families. We created “10 THINGS…” to give an overview of our program and how it all works. It not only details the program but it reviews what happens during the after school time and introduces each school's Site Coordinator.
Registration opened on January 5th. You can register at: https://wethersfieldct.gov/recreation On-line registration is preferred to better ensure your student gets into the class of his/her choice. Registering early is also helpful to make sure that we avoid last minute registrations and can get accurate class lists to the schools as early as possible. This helps to ensure a smooth end of the school day transition for your student!!
The Keane on Kids After School Programs
We are looking forward to getting kids involved with some really fun, hands-on enrichment! The after-school program will follow all safety protocols related to Covid that the schools have during the school day. As usual, if you have any ideas or if there is something you think your child would enjoy, feel free to reach out to us at This email address is being protected from spambots.

We would like to encourage families to register onlineBrochures are available only online at: http://wethersfieldct.gov/recreation
Registration is now open
Some important reminders:
- It is really important that you sign your child up for after-school programs as early as possible. Schools receive a detailed attendance roster at least one day before a program begins. Inclusion on this list is an important part of making sure your child is safe and going where you expect them to at the end of the day – especially for the youngest students.
- If you register on the day the program begins, you have to visit the Parks & Rec Department’s main office at Town Hall to register. There is a chance that if you register at the office your registration may not get entered the same day and therefore will not be on the roster. If you register on the day the program is starting we are now asking you to notify the school that you just registered your child so school personnel are aware that he/she will be staying.
- We would like to encourage you to have a conversation with your child in the morning of every day they will be staying after school. Talk about where they will be going and who will be picking them up. When your child has a clear picture of what they will be doing after school, the time between the regular school day and the after-school day runs so much smoother!!
- Parents MUST sign out their child. Please do not leave without signing out. Once the students have packed up their belongings, the Site Coordinator will walk them all down to the designated location to be signed out.
- If a student is a walker, they will sign out with the Site Coordinator themselves and then head home from the front doors.
- Registration for after-school programs will open through Parks and Rec is open now. Online registration is preferred to better ensure your student gets into the class of his/her choice.
