Boo! Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield announces special “drive through” Trick or Treat event on Halloween

The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield is offering a socially distanced, spooky, fun option to families on Halloween this year. On Saturday, October 31, 2020, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., the Boys & Girls Club invites families to a “Grab & Go Trick or Treat” event at 37 Proprietor’s Drive in Marshfield, MA 02050.

The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield offers an alternative to traditional trick or treating this year – a drive-through trick or treat option.

As cars enter the Boys & Girls Club driveway, volunteers wearing costumes will line-up and provide the children in each car with bags of Halloween treats.  All volunteers will be physically distanced, and families stay safely in their car.

There will be an optional “photo booth” for kids who would like pictures taken. This event is FREE to all children.

According to Jim Bunnell, CEO of the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield, “As we’ve heard warnings in the news about groups gathering and going out on Halloween, we’re providing a safer option with a fun drive-thru trick or treat for families.”

Supporting Youth, Families and the Community in an uncertain time

The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield is working with the Marshfield Food Pantry, the Town of Marshfield, guidelines from the state and the Marshfield Public Schools and other service organizations to provide critical services the community needs to support children and families over the short- and long-term. Among the steps they have taken to meet ongoing needs include: food distribution to food insecure families (hundreds of healthy meals per week in the form of Grab & Go meal boxes, drive-thru dinners and more); providing a safe place for kids while many parents and guardians return to work; and serving as a resource for the Board of Health and other departments to further assist families. Currently, the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield provides breakfast before school, remote support learning during the day, and traditional after school care for 100 students per day.

Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield to Oversee Marshfield Flag Football Program

The founders and leaders of the Marshfield Flag Football Program have turned over the league to the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield.

The Marshfield Flag Football Program serves more than 500 Marshfield families, with children ranging from six to 15 years old. The program is co-ed and open to all Marshfield residents.

Last year, the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield assumed management of Marshfield Flag Football’s Kindergarten to Grade 3 divisions, comprised of approximately 300 children. Effective July 1st, the founders and leaders of Marshfield Flag Football have turned over management of the entire Marshfield Flag Football Program to the Boys & Girls Club. This includes the 4th to 8th grade divisions.

Marshfield Flag Football league was founded by Marshfield residents Dante DiMassa and Mark Stiles, who established the program in 2012. They had wanted to create a fun experience for children and families and the program has been very successful and grown each year. DiMassa is Marshfield Flag Football’s treasurer/EVP and Steve Medeiros is the commissioner.

“We’re very pleased to transition the league to the Boys & Girls Club,” said DiMassa. “Their values and support of youth align with Marshfield Flag Football and the transition will be positive for the growth and continuity of the program.”

DiMassa and Marshfield Flag Football’s leadership team will function in an advisory capacity to the Club to assist with the transition and operations. They will continue to support the town’s youth through issuances of academic scholarships.

All players will benefit as they gain membership to the Boys & Girls Club along with opportunities to participate in other sports and activities offered by the Club.

“Marshfield Flag Football is a tremendous program that directly aligns with our health and fitness area of youth development,” said Jim Bunnell, CEO of the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield. “Dante, Mark and the Marshfield Flag Football leadership team have dedicated themselves to building and maintaining an incredibly successful program that serves hundreds of local youth. Now, they are passing the torch on to the Club and we appreciate this wonderful opportunity.”

More information will be forthcoming in the Fall.

Vigil for George Floyd to be held June 13th at Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield athletic field

On Tuesday, the funeral service honoring the life of George Floyd, a father, brother, son and friend to many, was held in Houston. In memory of George Floyd, a vigil will be held at the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield athletic field on Saturday, June 13, 2020 from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. 

This peaceful gathering, organized by Sabrina Holland of Marshfield and her team of volunteers, was originally scheduled for June 5th at Harbor Park but postponed based on safety recommendations of Police Chief Tavares. The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield was then approached to host the event, as the athletic field better accommodates a large number of people and parking is available.

The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield condemns any act of racism or discrimination. We are proud to be hosting the vigil as it fits in with the Boys & Girls Club mission. We advocate for all youth to have the same opportunities and encourage young people to utilize and focus the power of their voice. We believe it is critical to speak up and take action. As a nation, we can and must demand change to support black people and anyone who faces systemic prejudices. Together, we must listen and take action to ensure the future is great for the youth that are counting on us.

The pain we are feeling, as a nation, as a Movement and as individuals, is real. It is not simply a reaction to the news of the past weeks. We are experiencing a moment of profound reflection on what equality and justice really mean, and how far we still need to go. 

According to Jim Bunnell, CEO of Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield, “As we honor George Floyd in this peaceful vigil, we hope to deliver a positive and constructive message, and continue to build a community that works together and treats each other with respect and equality.”

In light of COVID-19, social distancing must be observed and face coverings are required.

Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield Announces “2020 Youth of the Year”

Each year, the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield, a youth development organization providing programs and services to children and families throughout the greater South Shore community, selects one exceptional Club member as “Youth of the Year” to serve as an ambassador for the Club’s youth as well as a voice for all young people.

The Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield is pleased to announce Jessica Martin, a senior at Marshfield High School, has been named the 2020 Marshfield Youth of the Year. 

Ms. Martin has been a member of the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield for 10 years. Over the last four years, Ms. Martin has held the role of Afterschool Staff/Summer Camp Counselor at the Club, where she wears “a number of hats” taking on duties ranging from helping with homework to supervising the Games Room. In September 2019, Ms. Martin became the President of the Keystone Club, and has since planned a variety of successful fundraisers.

Outside of the Club, Ms. Martin has served as After School Program staff for Marshfield Recreation Department. For the past six years, she has taught Pre-school and Kindergarten CCD as an assistant teacher at her church. In 2016, Ms. Martin received the Library Volunteer of the Year award from Furnace Brook Middle School for having the most volunteer hours, and in 2018, she received the National Honor Society award. A dedicated volunteer, Ms. Martin has volunteered 95 hours over the past 12 months to the Boys & Girls Club and the community.

As Youth of the Year, Ms. Martin will continue to spread awareness about the Club as a resource and its important role for youth and teens throughout the community. She has her sights set on becoming a teacher and intends to major in Elementary and Special Education at Endicott College in Beverly, MA in the fall.

“I can’t imagine where I would be right now, as the Club has been my second home,” said Ms. Martin. “The Club really played a significant part in my life after elementary school, as I was faced with new challenges. I look forward to starting college in the fall, but I will definitely return to the Club on break and continue to volunteer and give back to this amazing organization that has given me so much.”

About Youth of the Year

Since 1947, Youth of the Year has been Boys & Girls Clubs of America’s (BCGA) premier recognition program, celebrating the extraordinary achievements of Club members. Each year, one exceptional young person from a Boys & Girls Club rises to the role of National Youth of the Year. The National Youth of the Year serves as both an exemplary ambassador for Boys & Girls Club youth and as a strong voice for all of our nation’s young people.

The journey to being named National Youth of the Year begins locally and progresses to state, regional and national levels, with an additional military phase for members of BGCA-affiliated Youth Centers on U.S. military installations.

The Election Process

There are a number of steps that must be taken prior to being named Youth of the Year at the Boys and Girls Club of Marshfield. Club staff members nominate several teens, who are then asked to write an essay on the “Club experience”. The essays are read by staff and volunteers and four are selected. The top four candidates interview with a panel to discuss their essay, club impact and four areas of development – education, community service, leadership and family life. After the interviews, the panel and club leadership discuss and elect Youth of the Year.

Ms. Martin’s next step is to advance to the State level and compete against 43 other teens from across the commonwealth. This virtual event will take place on June 18, 2020.

“Jessica has tremendous leadership ability and she is a wonderful role model,” said Jim Bunnell, CEO of Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield. “It is our great pleasure to honor Jessica as the Boys & Girls Club of Marshfield’s Youth of the Year. We wish her every success in the future.”
