Boys & Girls Club celebrates Day for Kids

Boys & Girls Club celebrates Day for Kids
The Fernley Reporter

For more than a decade, Boys & Girls Clubs across the country and around the world have celebrated the Day with fun indoor and outdoor festivals, walks and picnics.

Saturday, the Fernley unit of the Boys & Girls Club of Truckee Meadows joined the celebration with a picnic and barbecue at Fernley Intermediate School.

The day included games, a bounce house, face paintings and other activities for kids and a chance for parents to get information about Club programs.

Day for Kids is a national initiative that invites adults and kids alike to take one day to celebrate what it means to be a kid.

HagenComment text: Maybe there is more to this story than what is reported, but it seems to me that the businesses that are causing this problem ought to be paying for this, or at least a major portion of it. Why does the County have to pay the whole bill? Just my opinion.Comment publication date: 5/7/26, 10:26 AMComment source: Storey County, Tesla partner to extend I-80 Patrick on-rampComment author: Alan ReederComment text: Great guy, laughed easily, had fun with his students, enjoyed our time together at FHS!Comment publication date: 4/23/26, 10:23 PMComment source: Howard David JacksonComment author: Jack & Nancy CookComment text: Wonderful man.
