From Burritos to Big Ideas: PAL’s August Calendar Delivers

Fairfield PAL's free afterschool calendar kicks off the school year with food, fun, and leadership for local teens!

This August, Fairfield PAL is turning ordinary weekdays into something worth showing up for. With a full schedule of free afterschool events, teens from Fairfield, Suisun, and Travis have plenty of reasons to stay engaged, have fun, and build skills after school.

Open to students ages 13–18 who are enrolled in school and live in Fairfield, Suisun or Travis Air Force Base, PAL offers a safe and welcoming space where teens can hang out, connect with others, and take part in activities that boost confidence and leadership—all at no cost.
