This is how Boys and Girls Club of Mountain Communities is helping the communities around them.
“Power Hour
The first hour of every day is devoted to completing homework. Staff assist our members with homework and preparing for tests. Parents get to spend a stress free evening with their kids.
Virtues
Every week we discuss a new virtue and how our members can apply it in their daily lives at the club, school, and home. It is reinforced throughout the week as the kids work and play at the club.
Diversity
Each week we talk about diversity, talking about differences in cultures and beliefs around the world and in our own community. A favorite topic is the different ways our own members celebrate different holidays, their traditions and foods.
Healthy Habits
We encourage healthy foods by providing free healthy snacks every day. Organized and free play games promotes exercise and healthy bodies. Age appropriate discussions covering topics from personal hygiene to drug and alcohol use make the kids aware that they are responsible for their own bodies.”
