FEBRUARY VACATION RECAP

HudsonClubhouse:

In past years, we have gotten many families that have registered their elementary & middle school members for February Vacation week activities at our Clubs This year was no different Our Clubs were open all day from 8am-6pm. Parents were able to sign up their children ahead of time for $25 per child to receive a discount or they can sign up the day of for $35 per child. Vacation weeks registrations also include lunch Studies have shown that when kids are not in school they benefit from attending an out of school program like the Boys & Girls Club. It enhances school performance, improved social skills, and reduces problem behaviors.

Our Club staff spend time putting together meaningful activities for the week including fun hands on STEM challenges to obstacle courses.

Marlborough Clubhouse:

Our Marlborough Clubhouse had an average of 43 daily members attend during February Vacation week In February, Clubs integrated Black History Month with their daily activities In Marlborough, program staff coordinated a BHM Scavenger Hunt. They posted 25 pictures with names of current and historical figures throughout the club. They were numbered 1-25 and the kids had to find all 25 and write down the name of the person on the picture to the corresponding number on their paper If they found all 25 they received a prize!

Our Hudson Clubhouse had an average of 30 daily members attend during February Vacation week. In the Hudson Club, they have a large group of members who are into the game of soccer. During the week, they put together a World Cup Tournament. Members were put in teams and were enthusiastic about the tournament. We hear it was quite a tournament. Congrats to the winners! In honor of Black History Month, Hudson staff facilitated a Black History Month Trivia Game. The game got the kids active according to their answer. Each answer they chose, required a specific exercise. It was a great way to get members to have fun, learn new facts and exercise all at once Checkoutoursocialmediapagefor somefootage!

FraminghamClubhouse:

Our Framingham Clubhouse had an average of 53 daily members attend during vacation week with their highest attendance being 63 members in one day! One of the big highlights of the week was the Staff vs. Members Pinball game. Members get very competitive when they play against the staff! While most of the week was very messy with exciting hands on activities such as ceramic painting, moon dough (Play-dough), bubble art and verymessyshavingcreamartprojects,they also finished the week strong with movie making on the iPads. Framingham members got to express their creativity through the video lens and then they editedtheirfootageusingiMovie.
