Olivet Re-Opening Plan-Overview
Olivet Boys & Girls Club is looking forward to reopening our club doors for the 2020-2021 school year. While these are challenging and uncertain times, Olivet remains dedicated to the mission of “enabling all young people, especially those who need us the most to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and positive, responsible citizens.” In order to fulfill our mission, meet the needs of club members/families, and maintain safety, we have altered hours of operation, policies, and procedures, which will be briefly described below.
