Boys & Girls Club of the Bemidji Area to open Blackduck Branch in Fall 2024
Press Release April 10 2024
The Boys & Girls Club of the Bemidji Area opened a Blackduck Branch of Club services in partnership with Blackduck Public School, co-locating within the school at the start of the 2024 school year. The Blackduck Branch will serve up to 100 youth in grades K-8, operating all day Mondays when Blackduck school is not in session and after school Tuesday through Friday. The new branch is made possible by a grant, which will fund approximately 60 percent of the operations for the first two years. A lot of people have been working over the past four years to bring together the leadership and funding to make this dream possible. We are grateful to the school leadership, United Way, and the whole Blackduck community for welcoming us and partnering with us to serve Blackduck youth.
