Mission: To impact the most young people possible, especially those who need us the most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Boys & Girls Club of Kenosha, the community is invited to the burial of three time capsules 11 a.m. Friday, June 30, in the BGCK front parking lot.

The time capsules, which will be unearthed and opened in 2033, contain items from our Youth Center, Teen Center, and Scamps members, along with some pictures of members and staff.

One will also contain a USB flash drive of the Club’s 30th anniversary video produced with the help of the Kenosha Public Library.

“It’s just a testament to the longevity of the Club here in Kenosha and our commitment to the sustainability of the Club,” Boys & Girls Club of Kenosha CEO Tara Panasewicz said. “The Club’s 30th anniversary time capsule burial is a way to acknowledge our organizations impact on the lives of many Kenosha residents and a great opportunity to raise awareness of the support and programming available here.”
