Membership
Welcome to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Central Arkansas. The Club pledges that it will make every effort to insure that the member along with the parents are provided with a positive experience in fun, learning, and personal growth. To insure this, it is very important that the member and the parents learn about the Boys and Girls Clubs and their important role in the Club.
​
It is every Club member’s responsibility to conduct themselves in a manner that will bring honor to their good name and that of the Boys & Girls Club. Each Club member must be a mannerable at all times whether at home, school, church, the Club or any public event. Club members must respect themselves and others.
​
It is the parent’s responsibility to insure that these guidelines are upheld by the member.
