Programs are offered after school, on weekends, and over the summer, and focus on improving youth outcomes in education, developing social emotional competency and leadership skills, as well as teaching youth to develop healthy lifestyles through physical activity and nutrition, and to grow to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens.
Each year, more than 2,600 young people from around Mercer County, attend Boys and Girls Club of Mercer County programs. And each summe more than 700 children and teens enjoy swimming, art, sports, dance, STEM and exciting field trips through Boys and Girls Club Summer Camps.
