The First Annual Great Futures Gala will be an elegant evening of cocktails, dinner, and dancing at the Ardmore Convention Center. During the evening, The 2024 Boys & Girls Clubs Youth of the Year will give their moving speech. The Youth of the Year is one Club member who exemplifies outstanding character, has shown personal growth, and demonstrates strong leadership qualities.

Proceeds from the Great Futures Gala will benefit the operations and programs of Boys & Girls Clubs of Red River Valley Oklahoma. Each year the Club provides meaningful experiences to students in the Southeastern Oklahoma area, offering a fun and safe environment to develop the needed qualities to become responsible, well-rounded citizens. Guidance, mentoring, and enrichment programs provide members life changing opportunities, awakening imaginations, and unlocking their potential to fulfill their lives’ goals and dreams.
