Teen Center After School
The newly renovated teen center is a safe haven for teens – literally a positive place where kids can learn, exercise, have fun and spend time with friends. From 3
– 7 p.m. Tuesday–Friday and Saturday
11-4 p.m., there is an array of exciting activities for teenagers.
The fitness room includes state-of-the-art exercise equipment. There is a games room and lounge that, together, serve as a hub for member interaction. Teens play pool, watch television together, or just hang out. There is a gymnasium and pool, homework room and computer lab that are also available. Homework assistance is offered during Power Hour, a regularly scheduled homework assistance program.
Aquatics
The Club’s four-lane swimming pool is a center of activity for members of all ages. Locker rooms for boys and girls are adjacent to the pool.
Basketball
Historically one of the mainstays of Boys & Girls Clubs across the country, over 550 youth participate in our Club’s Basketball League. The league serves the surrounding communities and is primarily comprised of inner-city youth. Our members learn skills, practice good sportsmanship and just have fun. For more information, contact Jake Myrick.
Games Room
Bumper pool, billiards, ping pong, table hockey, foosball and other games and tournaments improve motor skills, teach structure through rules and regulations as well as foster good sportsmanship and fair play.
