Local news about the Donald W. Reynolds Boys & Girls Club

January 6th, 2012

Congratulations to Butterfield Elementary, Happy Hollow Elementary, Holcomb Elementary and Owl Creek School on being selected as recipients of Arkansas’ Joint Use Agreement (JUA) funding through Coordinated School Health.  The Arkansas Joint Use agreement (JUA) Grant is a competitive application process made possible and supported by Arkansas’ Governor Mike Beebe and the Arkansas Tobacco Excise Tax created by Arkansas Act 180 of 2009.  These funds aid schools in adoption and implementation of joint use policy and forming collaborative partnerships with local community resources with the intent of maximizing resources while increasing opportunities for physical activity.

All four school’s collaborative partnership is with the Donald W. Reynolds Boys & Girls Club who will use the equipment and implement physical activities with their members during their afterschool program SKC.
