CLUB CHALLENGE STARTER PACK
This is one of the best programs I've ever run. When I was a Club Program Manager in Lawrence, Kansas, my good friend and die hard would you rather player, Tristan aka t-drizzle aka fog horn leg horn aka my dear friend introduced me to Color Wars. I have used the past 4 years perfecting this program into a what I call, "A GAME CHANGER!" In recent months, however, we have decided to change the name of this program to: CLUB CHALLENGE! Want to provide fun and uphold healthy life


POWER HOUR REHAB #1
Several months ago, my organization and Professional Association hosted a Boys & Girls Club of America National training event. We had a Power Hour session scheduled and as the session was supposed to begin, we were informed that the trainer was unavailable. I thought to myself, what is the mantra you tell your staff every day? Adapt or Die. So, a fellow director (Amber) and I decided, “Hey, we are cool…we can do this.” This really ended up being one of my favorite sessions.


HOST AN OPEN HOUSE/BACK TO SCHOOL BASH
Every late August or Early September, I host an Open House/Back to School Bash. I like to combine them because usually families are more excited to come do something fun and free rather than come to an informational event. Last August, we hosted a County Fair Open House Event. It was a great way for us to meet families, recruit new members, provide important information (parent handbook, expectations, discipline policy, communications, calendars, etc.), and have a ton of fun!
