Mission Statement: The Boys and Girls Clubs of Hancock County is a youth development organization providing a positive environment which seeks to inspire and enable all young people to realize their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens.
Who we are

All programs and activities are developed to give youth positive outcomes in the areas of academic success, good character and citizenship, and healthy lifestyles.
Lunch and PM snack menus for the first two weeks of camp have been posted to the summer camp website for those starting to attend next week. If possible, please ensure your child has something cool to keep inside the lunch bag in case we do not have enough space to store. With the numbers of youth this year, our fridge and freezer space is very limited.Menus can be found at: ... See MoreSee Less

This grant cycle granted more than $140,000 to 26 organizations from a collection of CFHC’s unrestricted resources and field of interest funds. ... See MoreSee Less
We are so grateful for the community support in attending, sponsoring, or donating to the Ron Horning Memorial Golf Classic this past Friday at Arrowhead Golf Course. The rain held up long enough to get both flights in and help to raise funds not only for the Ron Horning Scholarship (which helps a graduating Hancock County senior and former Club member, to pursue professional certification, associates, or bachelors degrees), but also for scholarships for youth to attend our after-school and summer programs.Congratulations to our winners from this year Jeff Mckee, Josh Bilbrey, Isaac Galbraith, and Randy Mathews.Second place (after a tie-breaker hat draw) went to Tim Albers, Scott Couger, Courtney Brodie, and Luke Swartz.This is our largest one day fundraising event of the year! If you'd like to participate in next year's event, bookmark www.bgchc.com/ron-horning-memorial-golf-classic for registration, sponsorships, and updates.Our next event takes place Saturday August 12th with our Back-to-School bash including our 5k and Cornhole Tournament. ...
