In Northwest Colorado we select one Youth of the Year from a pool of nominees to represent the success of the club aligning with our mission. We are looking for a club member who is realizing their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens with the help of the BGCNWC. This year honored 4 outstanding Youth of the Year nominees. You can watch the event and their speeches on the link below.
All four nominees received $6000 scholarship and the winner $120000. Macie Lahay this years Youth of the Year winner will go on to represent the Club at the state Youth of the Year Event. Due to the generosity of The Steamboat Group Real Estate we have a $5,000 match challenge and the opportunity to make all of their educational dreams come true.

2023 Winner
Everyone at the Club is super supportive, if you have a bad day you can talk to anyone, it makes me happy coming to the Club. I did Youth of the Year last year and for me it was a huge accomplishment. I was so nervous but it was the best experience. The Club has helped me overcome my shyness, find confidence and I can now say I am comfortable with being myself. I really love the Boys & Girls Club. Next year I plan to pursue a career in pediatric nursing.
