 CLUB CELEBRATES ADMIN PROFESSIONALS’ DAY

The Boys Club was happy to celebrate Administrative Professionals’ Day yesterday with approximately 25 managers and administrative staff.  Everyone gathered for a good meal and the Administrative Assistants received a spring treat to enjoy in their garden.  Our staff works very hard to provide the best service possible to the schools, the community, the Tribe and the Club.  We value the help and assistance of our employees each and every day!

WELCOME TO NEW STAFF

The Cherokee Boys Club would like to welcome Martha Wolfe to the Graphics Department.  Martha began her duties as Administrative Assistant on Monday of this week.  Please take time to introduce yourself to her and make her feel at home!

 KEEP STUDENT SAFETY IN MIND

As the Schools’ summer vacations draw near, keep in mind that our students are excited about their summer break and may not be paying attention as they load and unload the school buses in the mornings and evenings.  Please be alert when you are stopped behind a school bus and make sure the children are safely off the road or on the bus before you proceed with your travel.
