CONNECT THE DOT
Youth of the Year Finalists: We would like to congratulate the amazing teen members who have been selected as our 2018 Youth of the Year finalists: Eben Butler, Elia Watler Barros, Nick Clements, Brianna O’Keefe, Ivanildo DaMoura, Brianna Irwin, Jocelyn Sammy, Will Hingston and Erica Correia. Each of these finalists will take part in an interview session before a panel of judges where we will choose the Girl of the Year, Boy of the Year and Youth of the Year. The Youth of the Year will then move on to represent our Club at the Massachusetts Youth of the Year event in Fall River in June. The winner there will go on to compete in the Regional and then National Youth of The Year competition between all the Boys & Girls Clubs in America. Good luck to all of the finalists and thank you for being such great role models to the younger members and your peers.
