Boys & Girls Club of Lenawee

President Mary introduced Carrie and Brandy who spoke about the summer field trips our club helped the Boys & Girls Club underwrite which among others included the Adrian Skatery, Mud Hens games and Hidden Lake Gardens which the kids thoroughly enjoyed. These trips, Brandy said, involved over 300 kids this summer and actually change kids’ behavior! Carrie said that a survey is conducted every year to determine what the kids really enjoyed the past year. Other stats from this survey were: 96% of members expect to achieve on-time grade progression; 93% of members expect to participate in post-secondary education as a result of what they learned at the Club; 83% of members are having FUN when they are at the Club; 60% of members said they felt safer at the Club than spending time anywhere else. They thanked our club for helping to make a difference in these people’s lives! A huge event for the Club is the Blue Jean Ball.
