In addition, the Boys & Girls Club of Toledo share the facility on Hill Avenue and offer various activities in conjunction with The First Tee. The Dattilo Family Youth Leadership Center is the fifth location for Toledoarea Boys & Girls Clubs. This one-ofa-kind learning center is making a huge impact on the future leaders of the Toledo community. This combination of The First Tee and The Toledo-area Boys & Girls Clubs is a perfect partnership to serve children in the area. Kids become members of both organizations and benefit from their combined programs. The facility provides a safe space for children to study, get a hot meal, but also to learn more about golf and how to play the game the right way. There is a driving range and short course on property to help teach the game and provide exercise. One year after the ribbon cutting, the joint First Tee and the Boys & Girls Club is making a real difference in Toledo. Two organizations found a way to work together for the benefit of children and the community as a whole. If you would like to help The First Tee’s continue their work with area youth visit their website.
