Optional Spaces.
Once the program areas have been sized, determine which optional spaces to include.
Optional spaces are identified in paragraph 2-1.5.3. Optional spaces vary by Service.
The Base representatives, in conjunction with the program manager, must decide which
optional activity spaces to provide. Note the following when selecting optional activities:
If an existing facility is being renovated to accommodate the Youth Center function, the
amount of space available will likely determine what options may be provided. See
paragraph 2-5 for more information on alterations to existing facilities.
Consider what can be provided within both the operational and construction budgets.
Optional spaces include the following:
a. Multipurpose Room;
b. Kitchen. Navy normally does not permit kitchens;
c. Music Room(s);
d. Additional Parent Waiting (in addition to the waiting area in the lobby).
Navy does not permit additional parent waiting;
e. Laundry Room. Navy normally does not permit laundry rooms;
f. Youth Program Outdoor Activity Area; and
g. Outdoor Open Area (large play area).

Administrative Area.
Size the administrative area respective of all the program areas provided. For example,
if a facility is to have only one or two SAC activity rooms and small youth and teen
programs, a small administrative area will probably be sufficient. However, if a facility is
to have only one or two SAC activity rooms, a small teen program, but a large youth
program, a medium or large administrative area will probably be required. Carefully
consider the entire program when sizing the administrative area.
