Mayor Sarno states, “Nonprofits such as the Springfield Boys and Girls Club play a vital and important role in our community, offering a wide range of programs for our residents, especially our youth. I want to thank Executive Director Vinny Borello and his team for their efforts supporting our community. My administration is proud to support the Boys and Girls Club and awarded them $1.5 million of ARPA funding to redevelop and enhance the quality of programs and services offered for our youth, especially the swimming and pool programs. ARPA funding allowed the Boys and Girls Club to enhance their capital projects, including improvements to their pool and locker rooms with new pumps, piping, and swim safety equipment. I am thrilled to see the positive impact they are making with the use of ARPA funds with many teens coming to the Boys & Girls Club on Carew Street to swim and cool off during these hot summer days in Springfield. Thank you again to Director Borello, lifeguards, and staff over at the Boys and Girls Club for your continued positive impact.”
