Meet Ariel: her mom signed her up for the Boys & Girls Club of SCV when she was in her pre-teen years and, although she was not interested in going to the Club at the time, it grew on her; to this day, she credits the Club for getting her to where she is today.

This is Ariel’s story.

In celebration of the Boys and Girls Club of SCV’s 50th Anniversary, we will highlight different people connected to the local chapter, from past employees to alumni and current members. They will share their memories of their time in the Club as well as look ahead to where they hope the Club will be in the next 50 years.
