Boys & Girls Clubs of the Chattahoochee Valley (BGCCV) is excited to hold the Groundbreaking Ceremony for our new 6,800 square foot teen center at the North Columbus Boys & Girls Club. The groundbreaking will be held on Tuesday May 17, 2022 at 3:30 PM.

The North Columbus Teen Center will serve youth ages 13-18 who need access to quality academic success, healthy lifestyles, and character & leadership development opportunities. For nearly 85 years, Boys & Girls Clubs of the Chattahoochee Valley has provided a safe place for kids and teens to learn and grow. As the organization enters the next decades of service to youth, the focus continues to evolve, aimed at providing programs that ensure youth graduate on time with a plan for the future, go on to live a healthy lifestyle, and give back to their community. 

This project is the culmination of the $10.6 million Great Futures Capital Campaign which has completed several projects including but not limited to the purchase of the Edgewood School and relocation of the East Columbus Boys & Girls Club, renovation of the J. Barnett Woodruff Boys & Girls Club, refreshing the technology across all of the organization’s sites, and updating the vehicle fleet. 

There is also a naming opportunity associated with this ground breaking.
