A representative of the local Boys and Girls Club thanked the Lebanon City Council for a recent donation and described plans to upgrade a wing of Marcus Street Church for program use. Francis, speaking for the club, thanked Councilwoman Jerry and Councilor Camille Burdine for advocacy and said the project will be a community effort to serve children who need after-school programming. Councilors responded with public appreciation. Councilman Andy (city attorney) told Francis he had previously served on a committee to explore bringing a Boys and Girls Club to Lebanon and offered legal assistance to help the club continue toward opening. Why it matters: council financial support and volunteer advocacy were framed as important to expanding after‑school programs and recreation for youth in Wilson County, where councilors said demand exceeds current program availability. Details and next steps: Francis said the club will renovate a wing at Marcus Street Church and will need future support. Several councilors urged residents to learn more about the club and volunteer; no formal city funding action beyond the acknowledged donation was taken at this meeting. No formal motion or ordinance related to the Boys and Girls Club was presented during the meeting. Councilors thanked volunteers and encouraged public engagement with the organization.
