“It's a great place to have fun, with all kinds of stuff.”
Southwest Boys & Girls Club was built to be your place.
The Club is set up to be laid-back and fun. You can grab a snack after school, spend some time in the computer lab, play a little foosball in the games room, get help with homework…or just hang out with friends. We’re all about giving you cool things to do and cool people to do them with.

Programs and Activities
There’s always a lot going on at the Southwest Club. On any given day there are sports activities, maybe a cooking class, an art project, or a computer activity such as mixing your own music or cutting a video. Beyond the everyday activities, we’ve got other programs like the Keystone Club, the Torch Club, and the SMART Girls Club where groups of kids meet to help volunteer in the community. In the summer there are always fun field trips to go on, like a trip to Wild Waves or the Pacific Science Center. You should come by and see what we have going on.
