Youthtown is searching for their old boys and girls

 

Youthtown is celebrating their 80^th birthday this year, which has made them think about the thousands of young people who have come through their doors since 1932, many to play basketball.  Now in this special milestone year, Youthtown wants to locate and reconnect with its old boys and girls.

 

Old boys and girls who have been to Youthtown in their youth are being asked to join the Youthtown Alumni. It’s an exclusive group that will be offered membership benefits and the opportunity to connect with old friends at special events later this year.  

 

If you were a Boystown or Youthtown old boy or girl, or know someone who is, Youthtown encourage you to visit their website and sign up. It’s free to join and there are special gifts for the first 200 registered members. Youthtown Alumni will be the first to be invited a special 80 Year basketball reunion at Youthtown on Saturday December 1^st – mark that date in your diary now and sign up with your old basketball mates!
