LIBERTY, NY (February 17, 2011) – On Wednesday, February 2, 2011 the Liberty Rotary presented the Boys & Girls Clubs with a check and a surprise, to benefit their program at the Liberty Middle School.

Rotary presented Boys & Girls Clubs, and AYSO Soccer, each with a check for $417, a third of the proceeds from their October Pasta Dinner at the High School. The remaining 1/3 stays in the Rotary coffers, to assist their programming in Liberty.

“Our club members made the center pieces, set the tables and assisted however they could during the October Pasta Dinner, and we are grateful to Rotary for sharing the proceeds with us!” said Boys & Girls Clubs Executive Director Alexis Eggleton.

Rotary also surprised Boys & Girls Clubs with an additional $300 donation to the BGC Scholarship Fund, which Eggleton says the Clubs use to ensure no child is ever left out of the Clubs for inability to afford the $40 annual fee.

The Boys & Girls Clubs at the Liberty Middle School serves any Liberty student, grades 5-7. The Club is open from the end of the school day through 6pm, Monday – Friday.
