LATE PICKUP
The Boys & Girls Club of Bluffton hours of operations are posted on the IMPORTANT DATES section of the PARENT HANDBOOK. If you arrive to pick up your child/ren late, a $5.00 late fee per child for every minute late will be charged and must be paid before member can return (e.g. if you are 10 minutes late and have two children enrolled, the late fee would be $50). Failure to comply with the closing time on three occasions may jeopardize your membership. After 30 minutes late, it is considered abandonment and authorities will be called.
