Project supporters, elected officials, and community leaders gathered to mark this major milestone of rebuilding the Club that has served North Port families for nearly 30 years. The ribbon cutting marks a new chapter for the Steven and Marjolaine Townsend Campus, home of the Gene Matthews Boys & Girls Club, and the many young people and families who rely on the Club as a place to belong, learn, and build great futures.
