The Corvallis Club (near OSU) has an AMAZING facility (which I have never really realized until now). Two gyms, a stage, a recording studio, a computer lab, a teen only lounge, a kid ran coffee shop, an art room, class rooms, a game room, ect. The Medvale Club was well run with clipboards, schedules and an abundance of adults. The Lied Club had a laid back community feel with kids running around everywhere.
The Rio Ranch Club was different from all of these. The facility was isolated in the middle of the desert with bars on the windows. It was smaller than any others that we have seen and in poorer condition. The people in charge did not seem happy (it could have been a bad day I guess) and yelled way more than I thought was necessary.
The kids were the same as everywhere though; happy, excited, rambunctious and causing trouble. We had about 60 in total, 5 to 11 year -olds. We gave them the spill on hunger in the USA and had them color what hunger meant to them.
Here are a few of their pieces:
