Safety At Our Clubs

Safety is the number one priority of Boys & Girls Clubs of Detroit Lakes & Perham, and we are doing everything possible to keep children, our staff, and volunteers protected from the COVID-19 virus. Both Boys & Girls Clubs of Detroit Lakes & Perham are open to a limited amount of enrolled members at this time. Please visit the site-specific web page for details. Continue checking the website and our social media platforms for updates.

We are advising all our Club staff, families, and youth to continue to take precautions as recommended by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

If community members have additional questions, please contact theclub@bgcofdl.org. We will continue to update you with new information as it becomes available. Thank you!
