About BGCBoone
Our Mission:
The Boys & Girls Club of Boone County enables all area youth, especially those that need us most, to develop the skills, fitness, and character they need to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens.
Who We Are:
The Boys & Girls Club of Boone County was created in 2018 with the merger of the Lebanon Area Boys & Girls Club and the Boys & Girls Club of Zionsville. Our organization has been a force for good in the Boone County community for nearly 75 years. We see potential in every child and teenager that enters our doors, and our staff is committed to elevating and uplifting the youth of our community.
What We Do:
Our three Units in Lebanon, Whitestown, and Zionsville serve over 425 kids daily and 3,000 total members between the ages of 5 to 18.In addition to our daily programming and curriculum-based learning, BGCBoone offers sport leagues, summer camps, and community programs. In Lebanon, we feed dinner to an average 85 children, five days a week.
Our Formula for Success:
Four key characteristics define the essence of the Boys & Girls Club of Boone County:
Dedicated Youth Facilities: With Units in Lebanon, Whitestown and Zionsville, buildings are designed solely for youth programs and activities.
Open When Kids Need Us Most: The Lebanon Unit is open weekdays before school for Before-School Care, and all three Units are open for After-School Care and Summer Camp, times when kids have free time and need positive, productive outlets.
Trained Professional Staff: Every Unit is directed by trained youth development professionals who act as role models and mentors. Volunteers provide supplementary support.
Available & Affordable: Membership is $65 per year for any child between the ages of 5-18. In Whitestown and Zionsville, an additional $130 monthly fee is charged for after-school programming. After-school care in Lebanon is $65/month and Before-school care is offered in Lebanon for $35/week. We provide scholarships to ensure that no one is turned away!
