28 May Grand Opening of the Boys & Girls Club William N. Pennington Facility
United Construction is proud to announce the Boys & Girls Club of Truckee Meadows officially opened their new William N. Pennington Facility on May 20, 2014. State of Nevada and City of Reno officials, foundation partners and members of the Club’s board of directors all joined to cut the ribbon and open the doors to the new 55,000-square foot facility located on Foster Drive in Reno. The facility will serve between 3,000 to 4,000 youth annually, an increase of more than 25 percent of the Club’s current membership.
The new home of the Boys & Girls Club of Truckee Meadows includes separate areas for teens, tweens and youth with education rooms, computer labs, recreation rooms and art rooms. It houses a commercial-grade kitchen and cafeteria, multi-purpose rooms filled with ping pong and pool tables, and a four-court gymnasium featuring an indoor climbing wall, as well as a large outdoor play area. The second floor of the building is the home for the new Link Piazzo Non-Profit Center. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northern Nevada and The Solace Tree have relocated their local headquarters to the new center, creating a greater synergy and partnership for resources and referrals between the three organizations.
United Construction is honored to build such an asset to our community, that will serve children for many years to come.
