The Boys Club............
When I was a youngster, growing up where I did, I had boxing lessons at the Boys Club. It costs a dollar a year to join. I guess we were what's now called "underpriveliged." I participated in the Club's golden gloves program.
The real star though, was the wrestling program. Many of my peers went on to recieve college scholarships in wrestling, I guess it was a way out for many. A couple of them went on to become NCAA champions, and we had two that won gold medals in the olympics.
The Boys Clubs are a great organization, I highly recommend one. It kept me out of trouble...for awhile...anyway.
