KIPS BAY BOYS & GIRLS CLUB2010 ANNUAL REPORT

You know him as a judge on “So You Think You Can Dance”, but Nigel Lythgoe is also the Executive Producer of “American Idol” and the founder of “Dizzy Feet Foundation.” In the latter capacity Nigel has teamed with PBS’ “Angelina Ballerina” to give dance scholarships. On his November 18, 2010 visit to a K-Company performance, Mr. Lythgoe announced two $2,500 scholarships for Kips Bay club members to be awarded in June 2011.

KIPS BAY’S GOT TALENT

Erica Strubbe-Montalvo, Assistant Performing Arts Director, has named Jhane Hughes (front row, left) and Imani de Jesus (front row, center) as the scholarship winners. Jhane, age 9, has been in our dance program for 3 years and wants to pursue ballet. Imani, age 11, has danced at “The Bay” for 4 years and favors ballet and hip-hop.

The mission of Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club is to improve and enhance the quality of life for all young people, ages 6 to 18, with special emphasis on those who need us most. Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club exists to assist as many young people as possible to realize and achieve their potential for growth and development, and to attain the skills necessary to live and succeed in a complex world.

I’m writing on the day after the President’s Preview -- the elegant evening which inaugurates the yearly East Side rite of spring that is the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club Decorator Show House! Our signature event, our single largest fund raising activity, is an enormous undertaking. Each year, astonishingly, it all comes together.

It does so through the love and labor of hundreds of patrons, volunteers, designers, and staff members. Add thousands of visitors, and the annual miracle is complete. I thank each and every one of them.

My association with “The Bay” - as generations of youngsters have fondly called their Club - began 31 years ago. With that span of time logged, I find myself thinking about some of the many milestones, expressed numerically, that speak to our longevity, our accomplishments, and our challenges as well. Let me share with you just a few of the milestones that I reflect on in my fourth year of guiding the voluntary leadership of this institution:

96 — years in the mission of improving lives of youngsters, ages 6 to 18.

41 — years in the Bronx, having relocated from the Manhattan clubhouse on East 52nd Street in order to serve a much larger pool of youngsters.

39 — years of the Decorator Show House, recognized as the finest in the nation.

10 — years that we labored to build our new Frederic R. & Margaret Coudert Clubhouse, adding to expenses, despite reductions in charitable giving and government funding.

12,000 — annual club members enrolled at 10 locations throughout the Bronx. I know that you, who have taken a few minutes to read this message, care deeply for the positive development of children and young people in our city. You can join me, and 24 active and 12 honorary trustees, by getting involved. No one in the charity world ever recalls rejecting a check, but your participation will generate so much more satisfaction. Contact me at 212-867-8873 or paulross@westoverasset.com to discuss what you and I can do together – even at the trustee level.

May that call be a milestone in your life, and for thousands of current and future club members.

Paul H. RossPresident of the Board of Trustees

KIPS BAY BOYS ANd GIrLS cLuBBE GrEAT - AT ThE cLuB

Dear Friends of “The Bay,”

You've seen Boys & Girls Clubs of America's slogan, "Be Great," adorning bill boards along with an image of a youthful Denzel Washington, our national spokesman, who attended the Boys & Girls Club of Mount Vernon as a youngster. It is a perfect message because it captures, in just two words, the opportunity that awaits every child who comes to us.

I trust that the images and comments that follow in this section of the annual report will convey to you that Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club truly is the safe and positive place where more than 12,000 youngsters this year can strive to be great.

I invite you to help. On the back page you will find my phone and e-mail. I am always happy to speak with you and to welcome you as a partner. Thank you for coming to "our house."

KIdS MAKE ThE NEWS

Kimberly Tejada (l.), Breanna Garcia, Owaoma Okwu-Uwa and Onyeka Uwa are on the team that creates the Coudert Clubhouse newspaper, KIDS PRESS. Youngsters select, research and write stories, take photos, create the layout on computer, copy and collate, and distribute KIDS PRESS.

No American of the 20th Century exemplified greatness more than Jackie Robinson, who broke baseball’s color line in 1947. His story is one that every youngster should know. That is why we were delighted to welcome his daughter, Sharon Robinson (left), and Gina Hemphill of MLB network (and daughter of track legend, Jessie Owens), who brought a baseball clinic to Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club on Jackie Robinson Day 2010.

MAKOS SurGING

Aaliyah Casiano (l.), Carmona Johnson

When Aquatics Director Dwayne Lindo joined Kips Bay four years ago he found that our travelling swim team,

the Kips Bay Makos, had been defunct for three years. That changed in a hurry. In year one 13 youngsters participated. Currently we have 61 enthusiastic Mako members. As this story was pre-

pared, the team had just returned from a competition in Washington, D.C., where our boys placed first.

Dwayne’s love of aquatics is deeply personal. When his mom died in her sleep in his 14th year, Dwayne found comfort in his local pool, even though he didn’t swim. But he quickly learned and was a life guard at 16, and soon after a Red Cross certified life

guard instructor. Competitive swimming, he says, teaches discipline, self-confidence and the work ethic – all of which extend into other life arenas.

Our pool is busy. In addition to the Makos team mem-bers, 375 youngsters take swimming instruction in an aver-

age year. More than 800 come for recreational swimming, including club members from our homeless shelter, Housing

Authority and school sites, and summer day campers.

VENuS IN ThE hOuSE

Tennis superstar Venus Williams was a recent visitor on behalf of the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness & Nutrition and Boys & Girls Clubs of America. Ms. Williams charmed and inspired youngsters and staff alike with warmth, graciousness and a message of hard work, healthy living and education as the keys to success.

After Venus led young club members in exercises and took their questions, she patiently posed for pictures with any youngster who wished -- and that was every child in attendance. At right she engaged with a delighted youngster who had drawn Venus’ picture in anticipation of the visit.

The Williams’ visit is a continuation of ongoing Kips Bay programming to combat the rising tide of youth obesity, which is much accentuated in our bor-ough of the Bronx. We feature family fitness nights with healthy cooking demonstra-tions, speaker/mentors, farmers’ market visits, and our swimming-based exer-cise and nutrition education program called “ Get Fit/Get Light” .

As our nation fights youth obesity Boys & Girls Clubs are on the front line. Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club is proudly among them.

Executive Director’s Message

buILdINg Our chILdrENThere are more than 12,000 children we will serve this year at the club that will be exposed to programs ranging from job readiness training, educational enhancement services, youth empowerment training along with drug prevention services, and a large dose of healthy lifestyles and healthy living.

Our mission continues to be to improve and enhance the quality of life for all young people 6-18 so they can realize and achieve their potential for growth, development and attain the skills necessary to succeed.

Recently I had the good fortune of taking part in Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club’s Youth of the Year Program. Here we judge youngsters in various empowerment categories and the winner represents the organization at a National Youth of the Year competition. One young lady was asked what Kips Bay meant to her and she stated: “Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club is more than just a club to me. It’s more like a home away from home my second family! Becoming a member at this club was like entering a huge family of acceptance, understanding, and reliability. I know that as long as I’m a member I will always have a safe place to go to after school.

“This club is amazing, it’s a safe haven for everyone to attend, it offers programs and opportunities to help keep us motivated, on the right track, off the streets, and focused on our futures. I have never been part of such an amazing organization that has cared so much for me, and has offered me once in a lifetime memories, and opportunities. There are not enough words to express how grateful I am to my parents for signing me up at the club. I absolutely love this Boys & Girls Club; it has created the best memories in my childhood. I’ll always remember it!”

What a testimonial! It reminds me of what the Pulitzer Prize winning educator Robert Coles said: “We must form the character and sharpen the awareness of youth during those critical early years when moral and character development can be influenced most. In educating our children in basic character development we can teach them to be as compassionate as they will be successful. If we don’t do this, all the prosperity in the world isn’t going to produce a worthwhile human being.”

Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club plays a prominent role in sending such valuable lessons. Over the past 96 years we’ve been able to produce positive contributors to society and have paved the way for thousands of children in New York City and the Bronx. As a former member and present Executive Director, I’ve experienced firsthand how Kips Bay impacts the life of a child.

Today, I gratefully salute the Board of Trustees, committees and you, our donor public, who, with your generosity and labor, continue to support an organization that’s been serving youth since 1915.

I thank you on behalf of our more than 12,000 members for helping to keep Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club alive and in place now and for years to come.
