Boys & Girls Club

We’re all in this together, Monroe County. It’s time for the 9th annual Boys and Girls Club Benefit Dinner and Auction, coming on Aug. 23, beginning at 6 p.m. in the Tellico West Conference Center. 

There is a fantastic evening planned, including great food, a wide array of fun and practical items in a silent auction, entertainment provided by Club kids and by Paul Willson as our honorable live auctioneer.

Supported generously by local business and community leaders, this event is the most important of the year for the Boys & Girls Club organization. Now with the addition of the CLUB for teens aged 13-18, the needs of  kids in Monroe County are being addressed in six locations:  Madisonville, Sweetwater, Vonore, Tellico Plains and Rural Vale.  There is a Boys and Girls Club near you. 

Come meet our 2008 Youth of the Year, Amanda Evans, and be a part of providing a Positive Place for Kids!!

Admission to this fun-filled night is $50. Help our kids by getting your tickets in advance, available by calling (423) 442-6770. We are, indeed, in this effort together!
