NEW HANOVER COUNTY — The Boys & Girls Clubs of Southeastern North Carolina is opening its first school-based club site in New Hanover County, located at Holly Shelter Middle School.
Coming late January, the club site will run Boys & Girls Clubs of America programming in a school-based setting. Members will have access to skill-building programming, snacks, and a safe place. Transportation home will also be provided to members on an as needed basis and will include drop-off at locations such as Creekwood and Murrayville Road areas.
“I am incredibly excited to witness our clubs venture into school-based programming in New Hanover County with the opening of this club site,” Chief Operating Officer Mia Green said in a press release. “This strategic move not only extends our reach to a crucial age group: middle schoolers, but also takes us to a much needed service area. We are so excited to be able to better serve more youth in this community.”
