Our Keystone Club held its first meeting at Florida Southwestern Collegiate High School! Members stepped up to deliver their election speeches as they prepare to vote for president, vice president, treasurer, vice treasurer, secretary, and historian.

We are so proud to see our teens building confidence, strengthening their leadership skills, and taking an active role in shaping their Keystone Club. Stay tuned to meet our newly elected officers for the 2026-2027 year! 💙

🎶 From a dance battle to a full-on DANCE PARTY! 🕺💃

We had such a fun visit yesterday from the FCL Rays team at the Club! The afternoon started with a dance circle and some friendly competition, and before we knew it, the whole room had turned into one big dance party! 🎉

The fun didn’t stop there — our Club kids put their knowledge to the test with Are You Smarter Than a 3rd & 4th Grader? and even challenged the Rays to a friendly game of pool!

Thank you to the FCL Rays for spending the afternoon with our kids, bringing lots of energy, laughs, and some great memories to the Club! 💙⚾

“The Club is like a second home—a place where I don’t feel alone.” 💙

One of our 11-year-old Club members recently wrote this poem about what the Boys & Girls Club means to her. Her words remind us that the Club is more than a place to go after school; it is a place where kids feel safe, supported, and at home.

We are so proud of her for sharing this with us. Swipe to read her full poem!

A huge thank you to Deep Creek Pizzeria owners Dwon and Amy for their incredible generosity! 🍕💙

Our Board President stopped in to buy lunch for our staff as we prepared for the new after-school program and tonight's open house. When Dwon and Amy learned who it was for, they wouldn't let her pay.

Thank you for supporting our team and investing in the youth of our community. We are so grateful! 💙

Day 2 and 3 of the National Keystone Conference were filled with leadership, learning, and unforgettable memories! 💙

Our Keystone members continued building their leadership skills through inspiring workshops and sessions with teens from Clubs across the country. Between learning and growing together, they also had the chance to experience the magic of Disney Springs and Disney’s Hollywood Studios! ✨🎢

This trip is about so much more than the fun—it’s about developing the confidence, leadership, and life skills that will help these teens succeed long after they return home. We couldn’t be more proud of the way they’re representing Boys & Girls Clubs of Charlotte County! 💙
