Girls in Action
Teen girls at the Club participate in new program
Teen girls at the Club have been participating in "Girls in Action," a program designed to build character and promote positive attitudes and decision-making. Tarrah Coble, a GSU student and intern here at the Club developed this 10-week program. Each Tuesday, the girls focus on a different topic from self-worth to personal achievement to choosing positive friends and role models. Tarrah hopes that at the end of the program, participants "will understand the power they possess to create a future that positively impacts themselves, their families and their community."

Coming out of pool play as the #2 seed, the kids had stiff competition playing the top teams from the other groups. The team played hard with blow out wins leading to the championship game. The championship game was close from beginning to end with our team loosing by two free throws made at the end of the game. This was a warm-up event for the team, and they will be competing in several tournaments for the upcoming weekends. |
