Boys and girls clubs are closed today!! Yall have a safe weekend

Today, we honor Juneteenth, the holiday commemorating June 19, 1865, when news of emancipation finally reached enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. Juneteenth is a day to reflect on freedom, resilience, progress, and the continued pursuit of equality for all.

The colors featured in this design carry meaningful symbolism:
🔴 Red represents strength, sacrifice, and the resilience of those who endured hardship while striving for freedom.
⚪ White symbolizes hope, new beginnings, and the promise of a brighter future.
🔵 Blue reflects perseverance, unity, and the enduring spirit of a people whose contributions continue to shape our nation.

As we celebrate Juneteenth, let us remember the past, honor those who came before us, and continue building a future rooted in freedom, respect, and opportunity for all.

Last week, Tuesday-Thursday, Ms Kaiti Ford came by the Club and hung out with the members.
On Tuesday, she hung out with the 6-7 year olds and she talked to them about butterflies. The members got to learn different types of butterflies and then they got to paint their own butterflies.
On Wednesday, she hung out with the 10-11 year olds and on Thursday she got to hang out with the 8-9 year olds. Both days the kids got to learn about sling shots. After learning about it and having the safety talk, they went outside to shoot some targets.

Thank you Ms Kaiti for doing fun activities with them! They enjoyed it!

Yesterday we had another special guest to come meet the kids! Mr. Chief Ben came and chatted with the kids and the kids enjoyed interviewing him and getting to know alittle bit more about him! The kids were so excited to have meet Chief up front and personal, so of course they had tons of questions for him. We encouraged Mr. Jason to be in the spotlight as well, but he himself had a whole interview going on with the kids he was sitting with.

Thank you Chief and Jason for stopping by!

Funfact: Cheif's nephew is also a member of our unit!!
