New partnership to provide after school activities for area youth

The Tioga County Boys & Girls Club and the Owego Apalachin Central School District has partnered to provide OA students in third through sixth grade an opportunity for fun and enriching activities once their school day ends. 

The Tioga County Boys & Girls Club has served the youth of Tioga County and especially those in the Owego Apalachin Central School District for many years, providing a fun and safe environment for kids to experience a wide variety of activities. 

Now more than ever, families need a safe place for kids to go once their school day is done that will enrich their lives, promote physical health and wellness, and provide support, socially and academically. 

The Tioga County Boys & Girls Club is excited to open their doors weekdays from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. for third through sixth grade OACSD students.
