Our teens spend a lot of time having fun, and working hard! From running their very own Keystone club & store, to being involved in sports and volunteering. Each year our teens have multiple award ceremonies and college visits – our local teens are busy learning about leadership, responsibility, and having a sense of community.
- Our teen program is for ages 13-18
- We even have special Summer 'Teen Only' hours in the building from 4:00pm – 8:00pm
- After school hours run until 7:00 pm
Keystone
Keystoning is the Boys & Girls Club Movement’s most dynamic teen program. It affords teens an opportunity to gain valuable leadership and service experience. They conduct activities in three areas: academic success, career exploration and community service. The Taco Bell Foundation for Teens sponsors the Keystone Club program as part of a multi-year teen initiative; a strategic partnership between the Foundation and BGCA provides Clubs with the tools and resources to create a positive place for teens as well as for kids.
