Lummi Island Club
2200 North Nugent Road (behind the Beach Store Café) PO Box 1 Lummi Island, WA 98262 (360) 758-2828 The Lummi Island Extension of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Whatcom County has become an intricate part of Island life in its 14 years of existence. The Lummi Island Boys & Girls Club serves 74 children in a variety of programs on the Island and off. Utilizing the Clubhouse and Beach Elementary School, the Club has become one of the most important focal points of the Island since it's founding in 1996. We are deeply grateful to the Ferndale School District for their generosity, support and advocacy. It's just a short ferry ride on the Whatcom Chief!!

Eden Southworth is 20 years old and has been working at the Lummi Island Boys & Girls club for over two years. She feels it has been a privilege to work closely with youth in my community as both a Basketball coach and club staff.
