On Aug. 13, Annalisa Campanile, new Executive Director of the Boys & Girls Club of Assabet Valley, reviewed its plans under her leadership. The facility is undergoing renovations while the building is unused due to COVID restrictions. The Lowe’s Charitable Foundation donated $50,000 to renovate flooring, kitchen, restrooms, lockers, furniture and a complete HVAC replacement. The Rotary Club of Concord, with a grant from District 7910, is underwriting the creation of a study room with computers. Annalisa overviewed the Club’s programs, many of vital importance to neighborhood families through the after school programs and other offerings. Annual membership is extremely affordable. The summer camp program usually brings in extra funds, but was cancelled this year, as have other fundraisers. Rotarians are enthusiastic about continuing our relationship with the Boys and Girls Club, and look forward to resuming our activities with the children.
