Boys and girls club

If you’ve got kids in Newport News and you’re looking for somewhere they’ll actually want to go after school, this place delivers. The staff genuinely know the kids by name, which makes a real difference — it’s not just supervised babysitting. There’s a solid pool on-site, so swimming is a legit option, not just an afterthought. Kids 8 and up have been coming here for years and walking away with skills, friendships, and something to do that keeps them out of trouble. It’s the kind of community staple that Newport News would really feel the absence of if it ever disappeared.
