The Hartsville Boys and Girls Club took part in the 9th Annual Lights On Afterschool celebration Thursday along with more than 7,500 other clubs in the nation as well as parents, members, local business leaders, educators and other officials.
The event highlighted three significant contributions the afterschool program makes to Hartsville: keeping kids safe and healthy, inspiring them to learn and relieving working parents of worries about their children’s activities during the afternoon hours.
The Hartsville Boys and Girls Club, which opened December 1999, now serves more than 200 children, providing homework assistance, mentoring, tutoring and classes and clubs in sports, recreation, mathematics, chess and dozens of other subjects.
