Boys & Girls Club of Cape Cod

Boys & Girls Club of Cape Cod Over 1000 Cape Cod kids find a safe haven & life-changing programs at the Boys & Girls Club Cape Cod Who do we serve? Any child or teen on Cape Cod, ages 6-18.

Our after school fee is only $125 for the entire school year, our before school program is $125 for the whole school year, and both are $200 for the entire school year. Our licensed summer camp is affordable at $175 a week, and highly subsidized by camp scholarships from many sources. We have a daily attendance rate of 130-180 after school in the winter and 140 a week in our summer day camp. Please Note: During the ‘21-22 school year we will be requiring masks indoors, limiting the daily attendance to 100, and segregating the children by age for contact tracing. Our members are almost evenly split between children ages 6 to 12 & 13 and over. Our members are also diverse, 38% are from a minority background, as compared to 6% county-wide. Between 80 to 85% of working parents in our area commute daily, which makes reliable after school care even more important.
27% of the families that we serve at the Boys & Girls Club of Cape Cod have incomes that are $20,000 or less. Approximately 41% of our members live in a single-parent home. Youth living in poverty or with a single parent are at greater risk of dropping out of school. Kids with only one parent at home are almost twice as likely to drop out as a child who grows up with both parents. We know that kids benefit from coming to the Club because our alumni –millions of former Club kids – tell us so. In a recent Harris Poll Survey:
57% of alumni said the Club saved their life. When this response is broken down even further:
73% of African-American male alumni said the “Club saved my life
67% of Club alumni attribute their ability to avoid difficulty with the law to the influence of Club staff. Another 67% say the Club is where they learned how to “say no” to drugs and alcohol.
85% of Club alumni say that Club staff helped them know right from wrong.
28% of alumni report they would have dropped out of high school if not for the Club.
51% achieved a higher level of education than they thought possible because of attending the Club.
34% of African-American male alumni earned a four-year college degree, compared to the national rate of 16%.

Like to fish?🐟The Boys & Girls Club of Cape Cod is having a fun informal end of the season fishing tournament this upcoming week.
It will run Wednesday through Sunday. $250 a boat with 4 anglers. Pick any - or all of the days - to go out. Awards (mostly bragging rights) to the biggest bonito, false albacore & bluefish. (There will be prizes, too!)
Call 508 733-7173 to register!
The fishing is pretty good right now so there should be some good inshore competition.
