"My daughter was extremely shy before going to the Boys & Girls Club. Janelle and her team have made her open up and smile. She enjoys going there and playing and learning each day. They are wondering with the children, do a lot of activities, and always go above and beyond for the children."

"Over the years my 3 boys have attended the club. They all have loved it and enjoyed the extra programming that has been provided. Busy days were made easier because of Power Hour. Self-esteem was increased with the Junior Staff program. Their Favorite activity though has been Flag Football. The friends that they've made at the club will last a lifetime. The staff have shown my boys what it means to have patience and kindness. We are truly blessed to have our Boys and Girls Club in our town. "
