The BGCL BULLETIN
A quarterly newsletter to keep you informed on 
NEWS & EVENTS 
at the Boys & Girls Club of Lenawee.
 On July 31st, Boys & Girls Clubs of America is launching their GREAT FUTURES Campaign Media Kick-Off.  The GREAT FUTURES Campaign is an unprecedented media initiative to mobilize our country to reverse the negative trends facing America's youth.  
 
Starting with Good Morning America and CNBC's Squawkbox, and continuing throughout the day on multiple media channels, Boys & Girls Clubs of America will raise awareness about the impact of Clubs and the critical role of out-of-school time.

 

You may receive information in the mail or on television, asking you to donate to this campaign. If this exciting initiative inspires you to support our Mission, please designate the Boys & Girls Club of Lenawee to insure our local Club receives your gift.

If you have questions regarding the GREAT FUTURES Campaign or how to donate to our local Club, please contact the Boys & Girls Club of Lenawee at 517-266-9775.

BLISS YOGA:

TOLEDO MUD HENS: 
Summer Rec Day
 
On June 19th, 40 Club members and staff attended the Toledo Mud Hen's "Summer Rec Day." 
Members spent time before the game learning about Healthy Lifestyles and how to avoid risky behaviors.  
 
The trip was sponsored by the Mud Hens "Helping Hens Foundation" and the Lucas County Police Department.  Thank you, also to Adrian Rotary Clubs, for sponsoring the remainder of our summer field trip transportation expenses.  Fun days like this would not be possible without their support!
