>and just recently I learned the boys and girls club was closed.

Hi! It's true that Boys and Girls Club as an organization left Mckeesport, but I was a part of the transition team that saw the club building and grounds ownership transfered to the city of Mckeesport and we now operate under the LaRosa Youth Club to continue servicing our community.

Mckeesport isn't perfect, but it's home and I am determined to see it be a better place for my children.

I didn't just depend on that club as a kid, I volunteered there and would later work there when they added the new wing. I wish you the best of luck, that's an uphill battle if ever there was one.
