OLD PAGES WE DON'T USE
The Boys & Girls Club of Missoula County is currently able to serve 9 Missoula County Elementary Schools and a program for Middle School students.
COUNCIL GROVES
Our Council Groves program site is located in the Community Center on the Council Groves Apartment Complex property. Kids from Hawthorne Elementary get dropped off by a school bus at the complex. Our staff meets the kids at the bus stop and they walk together to the Club site. There is a Mountain Line bus route that picks Franklin Elementary kids up at a stop near their playground and takes them to the Council Groves Complex where they can meet our staff. At this time we are unable to have a staff member ride the Mountain Line route with the kids. If you feel your child is mature enough to ride the route alone or with a school friend, we will happily welcome them at our Council Groves site. Council Groves residents pay $2 per day for this program, non-Council Groves residents pay the regular fees and are welcome to apply for scholarships if needed.

MID MISSOULA
This program is located in the Student Center and is open M-F 3:45-6. Middle School students are responsible for getting themselves to Club and are able to leave at will. There is no cost to for middle school students to come and play video games, get their homework
done and hang out with their friends. We have a great sound system and nearly unlimited snacks. Please feel free to download and share the FLYER and check out our DIRECTIONS to see the Mountain Line bus and walking routes from each Middle School to Club.
For Mid-Missoula elementary students, we pick up from Cold Springs Elementary, Chief Charlo Elementary, Paxson Elementary and Lewis & Clark Elementary schools on their playgrounds and bring them to our Mid-Missoula location with passenger vans. Our staff meets kids from Russell Elementary on the school playground and we all walk together to Club. We also bring Bonner Elementary school kids to this site. We meet them as the bell rings and transport them with a passenger van.
LOLO
Our Lolo Boys & Girls Club staff meets our kids at near the elementary school office as the bell rings. Tuesday and Wednesdays we stay at the school and Monday, Thursday and Friday we transport the kids to a nearby church. We also welcome students from Lolo private schools. We are not able to pick them up from the private schools at this time, but if a child can be dropped off, we are very happy to have them at the club!
TARGET RANGE
We meet our Target Range Elementary School members in the school cafeteria as the bell rings and they are able to hang out in the multipurpose room or the awesome playground!
We hope to expand to other schools and districts, so if you would like to see a Boys & Girls Club at your school, please let us know!
The monthly cost to attend the elementary school program is calculated per child. For 5 days per week it is $180, 4 days per week $144, 3 days per week $108, 2 days per week $72, and 1 day per week $36. There are full and partial scholarships available based on household income. We are only able to offer one scholarship per family at this time. All families are put on a direct debit payment system. You will find this form in the registration packet. This form should be completed as part of the registration. Please contact us should you have concerns or questions regarding payments or scholarships.
OUR LOCATIONS AND HOW WE GET OUR KIDS TO CLUB IS VARIED, BUT THERE ARE A FEW THINGS THAT HAPPEN EVERY DAY AT EVERY SITE:
1) Snack!
For our kids the most important thing is snack. Thanks to our partnership with the Missoula Food Bank we are able to give our kids a 5 component snack every day right after school. They get a fruit, a veggie, a protein, a grain and milk. We serve an average of 20,790 snacks each school year!
2) Power Hour!
Our parents really seem to appreciate Power Hour. This is the dedicated time each afternoon for homework completion and assignments. Imagine, one less thing to worry about each evening because homework is done at club!
3) Play!
Everyone likes the time to play. Each of our sites has lots of space for our kids to run and play, to jump rope, throw a ball, shoot baskets and create all kids of imaginary games with their friends. We work to keep play interactive, interesting and safe all year long!
