The Boys & Girls Club is busy as bee's this spring! The members are crazy with excitement as the weather warms up. Here's a recap of whats been going on at the BGC:
Bowlapalooza!- Club 48 (the BGC after school progam) and Time Out 4 Kids (home school program) members all participated in the Big Brothers Big Sisters fundraiser Bowlapalooza!. The kids all had a great time at Fremont Lanes.
Earth Day- The BGC was host to this year's NCCS youth department Earth Day project. The project was a collaboration of NCCS youth department programs including Project FOCUS, the PACE Program, and Camp Newaygo. The project included rain barrel construction and beautification, the construction of a multi-bin compost structure, and garden weeding and clearing. The kids and staff were lucky enough to have three knowledgeable volunteers attend the project. Thanks Joe, Bret, and Dallas!
Capture the Flag and Baseball: The BGC members have been gearing up for baseball season by practicing their pitching during after school programming. When the kids aren't practicing their pitches they can be found outside playing capture the flag. The kids love trying to outrun each other and the staff!
