: Boys and Girls Club

Boys and Girls Club

Working collectively with families, schools, and outside agencies, each Salvation Army Boys & Girls Club provides local youth ages 6 to 18, with:

  • A safe, positive, and nurturing after-school and summer environment,
  • A place where youth receive instructions in life skills for personal growth and development, and
  • Services to all youth regardless of ethnic background or economic status.

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS

The Clubs' various programs and activities are designed to prepare its youth members for a successful transition into adulthood. Qualified staff members work alongside community and parent volunteers to tutor and mentor members, as well as supervise structured activities which promote learning, personal growth and skills development.

While attending the club, each member is encouraged to utilize on-site resource libraries and up-to-date computer labs.

Throughout the year, club members participate in workshops  focusing on such topics as  job readiness, leadership skills, healthy lifestyle choices and community involvement.

RECREATIONAL  PROGRAMS

Sports and group recreational activities are a large part of the clubs' programs. Supervised activities, which include basketball, football, cheerleading, arts and crafts, cooking, golf, and other such activities, strengthen social skills, encourage teamwork, and  build leadership skills, while helping to build self-confidence.

COMMUNITY AND CULTURAL ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS

Members are encouraged to take pride in their communities through organized community clean-up projects, recycling, and other volunteer activities.

Cultural enrichment programs provide members opportunities for experiences in various forms of the arts, including visual arts, drama, music, and photography. In addition, monthly field trips introduce members to other cultures and experiences outside of their communities and circumstances.
