Dear BGCRE Families,

As we begin another exciting year at the Boys & Girls Club of Redding-Easton, we want to thank you for being part of our incredible community. Because of your support, our Club has grown far beyond youth sports and now provides meaningful opportunities for children and teens throughout the entire year.

As our programming has expanded, so has the value of a BGCRE membership.

Membership Fee Update

Beginning August 1, the annual BGCRE Membership will increase from $50 to $75 per child.

This is the first membership fee increase in our Club’s history, and it reflects the tremendous growth of our organization over the past several years. While costs have increased, we have worked hard to keep programming affordable and continue providing many opportunities at no additional charge.

Your membership now helps support access to an expanding list of free programs and benefits, including:

FREE JRMS After School Hangouts

FREE Teen Hangouts and Summer Friday events

FREE Mark Twain Library Kids Night Outs for grades 1-4

Community service and volunteer opportunities

Leadership development programs

 Special community events and family activities throughout the year

In addition to these free offerings, your membership supports the continued growth of quality youth sports, enrichment programs, arts, STEM activities, and new partnerships that allow us to serve more children than ever before.

New Multi-Child Registration Discount

We know many of our families have more than one child participating in BGCRE programs, and we’re excited to make participation even more affordable. Beginning this year, families who register two or more children for the same BGCRE program at the same time will receive a 25% discount on the second child’s registration fee. We hope this new family discount makes it easier for siblings to participate together and reflects our commitment to providing accessible, high-quality programs for every family in our community.

A Better Membership Experience

We’re also excited to introduce a change many families have requested.

Memberships will now remain active for 365 days from the date of purchase, rather than expiring for everyone on July 31.

This means:

Families who join during the year will receive a full 12 months of membership.

No more losing months of membership because you joined mid-year.

Renewals will occur on your personal membership anniversary, making the process simpler and more convenient.

We believe this new system is fairer for all families and better aligns with our year-round programming.

Every membership helps us continue our mission of providing a safe, welcoming place where young people can learn, grow, build friendships, and discover their potential.

Thank you for believing in the Boys & Girls Club of Redding-Easton and for helping us create life-changing opportunities for the youth in our community. We look forward to another amazing year together!
