BGC Week!

Jessica Gaspar • April 5, 2019

Antelope Valley Boys & Girls Club has so much to celebrate!

The Boys & Girls Club movement celebrates National Boys & Girls Club Week by recognizing the invaluable service Clubs bring to communities and sharing how GREAT FUTURES start at the Club. While our Clubs operate on a local community level, they are also part of a growing national movement that supports and advocates on behalf of youth every single day.

National Boys & Girls Club week is a great time to see how our skilled staff helps youth achieve their dreams. We've scheduled activities for everyone to enjoy, along with great partnerships from around the Antelope Valley to make it happen! These events are just a glance into what happens behind our big blue doors!

MONDAY, APRIL 8th
BGC Week Kickoff!

TUESDAY, APRIL 9th
ANTI-BULLY DAY
Club staff and kids wore PURPLE to show we stand together against bullying. Sites also created "steps" towards a healthy, bully-free environment.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10th
HEALTH & FITNESS DAY
We were excited that University of Antelope Valley's men's and women's basketball teams visited the Hammack Activity Center and Whitney Mac center to hold sport activities for the youth. Stations were set up so there was something for every Club kid. Jersey's were also worn to show our team spirit!

THURSDAY, APRIL 11th
CAREER DAY
Northrop visited Hammack Activity Center to host a career event with the teens. Our Club youth also dressed for success!

FRIDAY, APRIL 12th
CLUB KID HIGHLIGHT DAY
Antelope Valley Boys & Girls Club hosted a small Awards Ceremony just for the youth! Staff and youth were encouraged to BE A STAR and dress like a celebrity! Looks like Ariana Grande and Nelly made an appearance!

The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Antelope Valley enjoyed celebrating BGC Week! There were so much involvement from all of our sites and our partnerships with local companies only made the week better!

THANK YOU TO OUR PARTNERSHIPS!
