On Wednesday, May 16, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Clinch Valley will hold their annual Great Futures event. The event raises funds for the organization’s two campuses, in Oak Ridge and Harriman.

This year’s event will highlight the achievements of the organization’s 60-year history of its Oak Ridge Club and the services and outcomes of the Clubs’ youth development programming.

“We are so grateful for the corporate and individual investments that have supported 60 years of programming in Oak Ridge and that continue to pave the way for great futures for both of our clubs,” said Jennifer Pettyjohn, the organization’s chief executive officer.

This year’s keynote address will be given by WNML Sports Talk host Will West, a press release said.

Corporate tables for the breakfast have, so far, been sponsored by Strategic Consulting Solutions, McLinc, UCOR, ORNL FCU, Centrus, ORUD, Explore Oak Ridge, Dr. Tom Clary of Oak Ridge Pediatrics, and Board members Fred Barry and Larry Kornacki. Individual tickets may also be purchased by contacting Jennifer Pettyjohn at (865) 244-6073 or JPettyjohn@bgccv.org. Sponsorships and seats are still available.

The mission of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Clinch Valley is to enable all children, especially those that need us most, to become responsible caring citizens through afterschool, summer, and athletic (Oak Ridge campus only) programming, the press release said.

“How will you become part of the great future of the Boys & Girls Clubs?” the press release asked.

For more information or to download a pledge card, visit www.BGCCV.org or call Jennifer Pettyjohn at (865) 244-6073 to process a donation or learn how you can get involved.
