T
he Boys and Girls Club of the Emerald Coast
had another successful event on Thursday,
September 22. Their 3rd Annual Steak &
Stake Dinner was a blast and an all-out
success with a full house of club members, sponsors,
patrons and guests. Former heavy weight champ
Evander Holyfield was the guest of honor for the event.
He made time to sign photos and speak with local
journalists.
The Boys and Girls Club boasts about 1,950
members. Their mission is to enable all young people to
reach their full potential by being caring and responsible
citizens. This was evident on Thursday as the kids
mingled and showed a willingness to help anyone who
needed a hand. The Directors and Counselors at the
Emerald Coast Boys and Girls Club are successful in
creating caring and responsible citizens.
