Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Manchester

★★★★★Allana Marguerite

My daughter has gone here for years & the transition at first was a little rough coming from a smaller community to a center so large, but the boys and girls club really is a program that offers so many amazing opportunities for the children. The kids have the chance to join so many different activities & see what they actually have interest in and with this area of the state dealing with high poverty, most of the children wouldn’t have ever had these opportunities without the club. They’re always doing some sort of event; African drumming, bingo nights w/ prizes, field trips to hike or the palace theatre, performances, etc. Our family loves their performing arts program & it’s 100% because of the head of performing arts, Isaiah. Huge shout out to him. He truly puts 150% into this program and it shows. The club had a few different people in his position before he came into it, and although they were all kind and put in a lot of energy, the changes Isaiah has made are phenomenal. My daughter has grown so much as a performer under his instruction!!! He teaches them actual stage basics, has them doing auditions, has performances set up in a perfect way for their space so everyone can see and the stages look so good. He changed the practice hours for certain programs & it really adjusted the show out to reflect kids that really have a passion for performing. By doing that, my daughter has met new friends that have the actual same interests as her & all of the kids he instructs have grown such a strong bond. Definitely recommend the club for those in the area and shout out Isaiah. Give that man an award! 🥇

Not good here at all. although some staff are nice, the office is HORRIBLE. They gave my son a write up for getting into an argument with a staff member who was supposedly known to be rude in general, and the toilets and grounds are dirty with trash and wet with water. The staff also abuse their power, and try to make the situation look even worse than it was. It’s crazy expensive as well. Never coming back here again. Would NOT recommend, and would rate it 0 stars if I had the chance to.

I absolutely love this place ... Me n my brother went as kids over 20 years ago and it's only got nicer throughout the years... My son's first day was today and I can't wait to hear how his day was but I'm pretty sure he was going to love it! The staff and the activities are just great!

Personally me and my sister went here as kids for a week summer camp and we disliked it. There were rude staff members, and they didn't even pronounce my name correctly. My sister broke her arm in the forest playing capture the flag and the "nurse" there kept making her move her arm. If you know anything about broken arms, your not supposed to move them too much. This made it even worse. I recommend this for kids who like to be rough but not for kids who don't like the bugs! The crafts were fun but when your group had the pool, you could only be in for 10 minutes and then you would have to get out. Overall not satisfied.

Excellent they have really done a lot of updating. My niece attends and she loves it. Which is hard to believe because she is very picky. The staff is friendly and had great security they checked my ID before I took her. Parking can be tricky during pick up only because a lot of kids there. There is parking along side and on the street parking too as long as their isn't any funerals. (Located next to a funeral home) I recommend them.
