Dovercourt Boys and Girls Club is a fun-filled program that not only offers kids the chance to get involved during the summer through their amazing summer camps but also throughout the year with their after school and weekend programming. The program keeps the kids entertained and having fun throughout the summer.

Curiosity among the campers as they try and see what waits for them in their room

First opening their doors to young boys and girls in 1958, the Dovercourt Boys and Girls Club has grown to accommodate over 100 campers age 4-17 each summer at their main location and many other locations. Their facilities at their main location (180 Westmoreland Avenue) includes a pool, computer room, kitchen, video game room, plus a playground and soccer field right outside!

Dovercourt Boys and Girls Club has helped teens and kids stay off the streets and lets them enjoy the summer in a very productive way. Whether it’s with Focus On Youth as camp counselors, volunteer staff, or as campers teens and kids have an amazing time and make memories and friendships that last them a lifetime.
