MatchZone Update! 😊

33 Bigs, Littles, and families showed up to the Troy Boys & Girls Clubhouse this month for an afternoon that had a little bit of everything: swimming, open gym, match meets, and new Little enrollments. 💚

With each MatchZone, we’re expanding our impact and creating more opportunities for families to get connected and begin their journey with BBBSCR.

Huge thank you to the Boys & Girls Club of the Capital Area for being such an incredible partner and helping make this possible. 🙏

Because of our Bigs, our Littles have someone in their corner. 💚🖤

They show up. They listen. They encourage — and that kind of impact doesn’t go unnoticed.

We’re proud to partner with Druthers Brewing Company to create spaces like Bigs & Brews — a monthly opportunity where our Big community can come together for meaningful conversations, shared experiences, and fun!

This night showed the power of this community in action. 👏

A huge thank you to Druthers Brewing Co. for helping make this possible.

More connection. More community. More Bigs & Brews to come. 👀
