Boys & Girls Club of Greater Newark

"My son and daughter are learning swimming for so long. All the teachers are great."

"They have excellent programs for young people. The staff is great, they are professional, patient and enjoy working with the youth. My son learned how to swim here, and was able to compete in the Speedo Nationals in Florida."

"I joined the club in July 2022 and found that the instructor Heidi was very rude to and she showed not interested in teaching or engaging the swimming class. Her negative attitude has caused me and my friends to relocate to the Fraims Boys and Girls Club where the instructors are participating in the class and having fun."

"Really when I used to go here over 20 years ago it was a nice facility. Today thinking my child would enjoy himself too having the same experience I did but no the very opposite. Nothing but the promotion of bullying and not helping the child keep a open mind to help them to understand each other. I know we all just came back from COVID last year but unfortunately this is why I will find someone more pricey because today you really get what you pay for."

"I tutor math, instrumental music, social studies to several students. The center is active and pro youth success. I am truly delighted to be part of their program. April Thorpe is the amazing Director of Education. Other than regular activities, snacks are available to students arriving after school."
