Nearly 40 volunteers distributed the turkeys outside of the Club. The event was made possible by the Nexus Alliance, whose mission is to cultivate a network of black male professionals that provide an inclusive platform for mentoring, internal business development, community achievement and visibility.

Tom Hamilton, the bassist from Aerosmith, visited the Blue Hill Music Clubhouse on Wednesday, April 9 to play music with Club members and give professional instruction. Mr. Hamilton also donated an electric guitar, keyboard and junior drumset to the Club. Ten members were chosen to participate in the event, which took place from 4 - 5 p.m. and was made possible in partnership with the Music & Youth Initiative; the sponsors of the Music Clubhouse.
Passion for Fashion: Fashion Show
The fashion show was held on April 5 and more than 200 members and parents attended the event. The event was a result of a Girls’ Group called Passion for Fashion, which was a sociological study of fashion, body image and identity, media, and self presentation. In the second half of the program the girls planned this fashion show. They chose four specific looks from their own closets to model during the show. The outfits were chosen in light of all that they learned about themselves during the program.
