Since 1939, the Boys & Girls Club of El Dorado has impacted the lives of thousands of our area’s young people.
Former Club members contribute to our community in many different ways: educators, business leaders, doctors, attorneys,
politicans, law enforcement officers, manufacturing workers, and Boys & Girls Club volunteers
The Allumni Association was created in 1992 with the Hall of Fame. In 2002, the Boys & Girls Club of El Dorado Alumni
