Grand re-opening celebration for Community Boys and Girls Club

A Wilmington facility celebrated its recent renovations. The Community Boys and Girls Club in Wilmington held their grand re-opening Thursday night.

The gym was built in 1979, received an extreme makeover, much to the delight of Mayor Saffo and the more than 200 children who attend each day.

A new floor and a fresh coat of paint highlight the changes.

The total cost of the renovations was $276,000, which came from grants from the city and a North Carolina based capital improvement foundation.
