October 2019 – Boys & Girls Clubs of Dorchester

BOSTON, MA — On October 15, a group of 100 members and chaperones from BGCD were invited to see award winning best musical, “The Lion King” at the Opera House. They all had a fantastic time singing along to some of their favorite Disney songs.

For some of our members, it was their first time ever attending a live performance in a theater. This opportunity will be a memory that they will never forget due to the generosity of BGCD’s partnership with the Marilyn Rodman Theatre for Kids Program.

An enormous thank you to the Marilyn Rodman Theatre for Kids Program, and Don Rodman for continuing his legacy of providing such an incredible experience for our members.

DORCHESTER, MA — Boys & Girls Clubs of Dorchester restarted our program partnership with Elevate Youth to provide outdoor learning opportunities for our members. The group enjoyed a hike in the Blue Hills and at the top of the mountain, took part in a yoga class before hiking back down.

Elevate Youth provides two activities each month including our upcoming trip horseback riding at the end of October and rock climbing in November.

A special thanks to our friends at Elevate Youth for providing these opportunities to our members.
