A representative of the Boys & Girls Club told the council the organization served 935 unique members in 2025 and over 780 so far in 2026, and that the club operates free tee‑ball for 3–6 year olds (95 participants this year). The presenter asked for county consideration of gym renovations and announced that Bethany Legacy will match dollar‑for‑dollar up to $100,000 if the club raises $100,000 within the next year.

The representative said the club raised some funds and applied for grants prior to learning of the Bethany Legacy pledge and that any county award would be doubled by the matching arrangement. Council members congratulated the club and asked about timing; the presenter said construction is planned for the fall after summer programming completes if funding is secured.

No formal action was recorded during the meeting.
