Detroit Lakes, MN (KDLM) – The Boys and Girls Club of Detroit Lakes announced yesterday that they are adding full-day childcare for preschool-aged children. The Club is now accepting applications for kids ages three and four for full-day and extended-day options with a start date of January 4th, 2023. The daycare will be open year-round.

The Club has responded to the needs of children in Becker County since 1957. Between our Clubs in Detroit Lakes and Perham, they already serve over 850 children between the ages of 5 and 18, with more than 250 of those children bursting through our doors each day after school.

Members receive time for social interaction, physical activities, arts and crafts time, and nutritious meals and snacks. The activities and programs we implement focus on three priorities: academic success, good character and citizenship, and healthy lifestyles.

For more information, you can call the club at 218-287-5700, or email clubbies@bgcofdl.org.
