Building Friendships & Foundations

At FLYMC, our Boys & Girls Club is more than just an after-school program it’s a vibrant, nurturing space where young people come together to play, create, learn, and grow in an atmosphere of safety, inclusion, and encouragement.

Each session offers a carefully balanced mix of fun and development, featuring energetic games, creative arts and crafts, collaborative projects, and positive peer interactions. Kids don’t just stay busy they’re engaged, inspired, and supported.

And when summer arrives, the program expands into new dimensions of joy. Poolside fun becomes a highlight where laughter rings out, friendships deepen, and children experience the pure happiness that comes from being outdoors, being active, and simply being kids.

But what truly sets our Boys & Girls Club apart is what happens beyond the surface the intentional moments of connection that shape character and community. We make room for meaningful conversations, not only between peers but across generations. Our older youth step into mentorship roles, offering guidance and encouragement to the younger ones, while also growing in responsibility and leadership themselves.

These intergenerational conversations are more than just talk they are moments of learning, empathy, and empowerment. Kids begin to see themselves not only as participants, but as contributors valued voices in a community that sees their potential.

It’s also a space where every child can simply be themselves a break from academic pressures or social expectations. Here, they can unwind, express freely, and build friendships that last. With every shared activity and heartfelt conversation, our young people are becoming stronger in character, more confident in who they are, and more compassionate in how they relate to others.

Whether they’re painting a mural, leading a group game, sharing their story, or just splashing in the summer sun, the children and youth at FLYMC’s Boys & Girls Club are learning what it means to grow up in a supportive, values-driven environment one that champions their dreams, celebrates their uniqueness, and walks alongside them as they become the best version of themselves.
