Boys and Girls Club of Cape Girardeau plans to move

The Boys and Girls Club of Cape Girardeau plans to relocate its operations to the Central Junior High School campus if the school board agrees.

Club director NaTika Rowles said the move would make its after-school and summer programs more accessible to students than at its current location at 232 Broadway.

The organization wants to move its offices and programs into empty or largely unused rooms in the basement of the junior high school and in a metal building on Whitener Street just south of the junior high's public parking lot.
