Each day, programs are offered in 5 core areas: Education, Sports Fitness & Recreation, The Arts, Health and Life Skills and Character and Leadership Development.
Special Programs This Month
Our monthly theme for December is Service Learning. We will be time working on new projects, doing community service projects around the Club and school and learning about ways we can work together to make our world a better place!
The art emphasis for December is collage and sculptures. Rebekah and Nichole will be teaching our members all about these mediums and the various ways they can be used for personal, professional, and practical works of art. Look for new pieces to be displayed around the room as well as at our Fine Arts exhibit early next year!
November Showcase
We have started our Gym Wars intramural season this November and look forward to playing the other Bellevue club locations. This program provides members the opportunity to interact with other kids from the other sites. Games are played Home and Away. Get a permission slip and games schedule at the front desk.
On November 15th, the Bennett Boys and Girls Club hosted their first Family Night Potluck of the year. The event was meant to bring families and their kids together, and it did just that. Over 50 people were in attendance and there was food ranging from homemade Mac and Cheese to finger licking good chicken.
Youth of the Month
Our December youth of the month is Smriti! Smriti is a positive role model for Club members in her participation in Club activities, her Power Hour performance, and her willingness to help out with whatever needs to be done. Congratulations, Smirti!
