Member Code of Conduct

In order to ensure a safe, fun, and impactful Club experience for all members, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro South strictly enforces a Member Code of Conduct. The membership rules as stated are designed to ensure that members are accounted for at all times, that all members and staff feel safe and respected while they are at the Club, that age-appropriate behavioral development is consistently reinforced, and that all staff and members are acting as positive representatives of the Club community at all times.

Health & Safety 

The safety of our Club members is our highest priority. Our comprehensive Child  Protection  Policy  outlines polices within the four elements of screening and hiring, training, supervision, and feedback systems. 

Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro South staff members are trained in CPR and 

First Aid. Regular safety drills (fire, medical emergency, shelter in place) are conducted at all Clubhouses to ensure we are prepared to act effectively in the event of a true emergency.

When members arrive at our Clubhouses their attendance is logged and they are only allowed to enter and exit through their Clubhouse's front door. Once at the Club, pre-teen members may not leave until they are picked up by a parent or guardian unless they have prior written permission. Teen members may dismiss themselves, and may leave and return to the Club once per day.
