TORCH CLUB
Ages 10-12



Torch Club helps to lay the foundation for enabling young people to meet the demands of citizenship with inspired leadership and concern for others.  It is currently offered by the Before and After School Program during regular program hours.


Torch Club is for pre-teens aged 10 - 12 and provides a small group experience with the support and guidance of an adult mentor.  This offers the opportunity to give service to others and gain the sense of responsibility that comes with making their own decisions.  A Torch Club is sponsored by a local Boys and Girls Club and receives an official charter from Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada.



BENEFITS OF PARTICIPATION

  • self-esteem building
