HAPPENING AT THE CLUBS
Spotlight on Intergenerational Connections
Character and Leadership development is one of our Boys & Girls Clubs priority outcomes. This year, we are focusing on community service that creates intergenerational connections. One part of this project is going to Columbine Manor to spend time with their residents!

Thank you Collegiate Peaks Bank!
We've partnered with Collegiate Peaks Bank to implement financial literacy classes for our kids. Over several weeks, kids learn the basics of finances including wants vs. needs and income/ expenses. The class culminates with a field trip to our local Collegiate Peaks Bank branch, and the kids even learned how to make a deposit!
