About

Despite the many renovations and updates to the current John Will Anderson Club, there still remain several issues. The building has continual flooding in the lower level causing many of our program rooms to be closed to kids. Additionally, the dampness of the lower level has caused continual pumping of water which is not cost-effective of resources. Further, the facility is completely landlocked. There is no green space for youth to enjoy outdoors, or for staff to program for outdoor activities. The Club sits on 5th Avenue — a very busy street posing safety issues for our youth. This is why Tolleston Middle School building and grounds is being reborn into a thriving center that serves our children and gives back to the community.
