Keystone Club at Wakeman Boys & Girls Club

Keystone Club is the Boys & Girls Club Movement’s premier leadership program for teens in grades 9–12—built to help them grow, lead, and explore their future. Through hands-on experiences in Character & Leadership, Service to Club and Community, and Education & Career Exploration, members gain confidence, build real-world skills, and discover what they’re capable of. Join the Keystone Club at any of our 3 clubhouses!

BGCA hosts an annual National Keystone Conference for Boys & Girls Club teens that brings together members from all across the globe. Throughout the conference, Keystone members engage and socialize with peers, explore relevant issues, and develop skills to support and enhance efforts in their local Boys & Girls Clubs and communities.

Keystone Club is designed to help teen members develop good character and become leaders. Each year, Keystoners develop a National Keystone Project which is the combined action of hundreds of local Keystone Clubs resulting in a service project with a national scope. In 2022, the Southport Clubhouse's service project placed in the top three nationwide, and in July 2023, they won first place for their efforts!
