Ylikiiminki Youth Centre Boxi is a meeting place for the region’s children and young people. Boxi offers you a safe environment to spend free time, participate in hobby activities and meet friends and instructors.
The Youth Centre is located in Ylikiiminki town centre’s old town hall, in the lower floor of the community house. On top of this, activities for 7th graders to 17-year-olds are organized in the Vesala Community Centre, in the Vesala Boxi. You can read more about Vesala Boxi via this link.
The Ylikiiminki Youth Centre Boxi’s facilities are not fully accessible since the facility is in two floors. There is no elevator or lift device.
You can play board or video games, do crafts, play pool and table tennis or just spend some time at the Youth Centre. Additionally, you can utilize the exercise hall at Vesala.
We communicate about our activities primarily on our Instagram @nuoristotila_boxi.
The users can also organize activities themselves (such as clubs) with the support of our instructors.
We cooperate with the region’s schools and parish, so you might run into our instructors outside of Boxi. Ideas and wishes are always welcome, please tell us about them or message us by phone, Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat.
You will find our communications channels, address and a short presentation video of Boxi’s facilities below.
