Jeffrey-Glidwell Expansion and Renovations

Originally opened in 1957, the Jeffrey Boys & Girls Club on North 'O' Street got the official start of a $3.1 million construction project to refurbish and expand the facility. Included is a state-of-the-art instruction center for STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math), new sports facilities, and air conditioning for the gymnasium. The additional 3,00 square feet will add learning spaces, music and dance areas, an 'innovation lab', as well as improved administrative offices. New to the facility will be two Futsal courts behind the building. Futsal uses smaller courts than soccer and is fenced - they can be used for multiple games including pickleball and basketball.   FSBGC has four facilities serving the river valley area: Evans, Goldtrap-Gardner, Jeffrey-Glidewell, and Stephens.
