OUR HISTORY as the Boys & Girls Clubs of Tampa Bay has been a strong thread in the fabric of the Tampa Bay community for nearly 100 years. In 1926, the Tampa Rotary Club established the first Club, – the West Tampa Boys Club. After successfully financing and operating the Club for almost 20 years, the Rotarians recognized a need for expansion and thus began the growth of an organization dedicated to serving young men and women.
