We are a licensed day care facility through the state of Tennessee and have a three star rating.  We have trained, caring, professional staff who are dedicated to providing a safe and caring environment for the children of our community.  All staff and volunteers undergo an extensive background check each year with the Blount County Sheriff’s Department, and the Sex Offender and Abuse Registry.  In addition, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Tennessee Valley conducts pre-employment and random drug screens on all employees annually.

Special Events

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Blount County holds several special events each year.  These events include our Showcase Fundraising Dinner, Golf Invitational, and Bike Run.  We also participate in the Great Knoxville Rubber Duck Race. Not only do these events raise much needed revenue, but they also heighten community awareness of the mission of the organization.
