Very disappointed in how boys and girls club is handling the bus driver incident. It’s been 3 weeks since the driver refused to let my children off the bus . She put hands on my daughter and some how the driver still has a job but my children can’t come back to the program. This is the only program on the island for both of my children to go to. I am an able to work because of this. Boys and girls club PROMISED THE KIDS THEY COULD COME BACK 3 weeks ago and now refusing to let them come back!!!! THEY MISS THERE FRIENDS THEY SHOULDNT BE PUNISHED FOR WHAT YOUR DRIVER DID !!!!!

In 1965, stone carver John E. "Fud" Benson of Newport was commissioned to surround the grave of John F. Kennedy with quotes from his famous 1961 inaugural address, engraved in granite. He eventually carved them into a wall that still encircles the grave, but earlier he had tried breaking up the speech into five separate slabs. That approach was rejected, and, somehow, one of the slabs ended up here. Kennedy's speech is best known for its ringing, "My fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." This slab is inscribed with the less-memorable follow-up line: "My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you." (Followed by, "But what together we can do for the freedom of man.") The wall at JFK's grave was restored in 2010, but the obsolete slab in Newport has stained and weathered, apparently the last survivor of a tribute to a speech that went on a little too long.

The boys and girls club has always been a safe space for me, growing up in the early and late 90s the club was thee place to be, from the one located in the late tonomy hill to the one on church st. If you was there, then you know the feeling it gave. Now years later at the age of 26 I allowed my 6 yr old baby girl to join the club, fast forward to present time and my daughter is now 13 and has had a whole child hood at the club house.

Open swim is available for a fee and reservation is required. Nice clean locker rooms and friendly atmosphere! Parking is on the back side of building.
