A Message from 2009-<strong>2010</strong> Board President Scott<br />
Mihalovic & Executive Director Mike Desmond<br />
I am very appreciative to work with the wonderful staff and the strong board of directors that serve the<br />
<strong>Boys</strong> and <strong>Girls</strong> <strong>Clubs</strong> of Greater La Crosse. During the past two years, during which time I served as board<br />
president, I have been encouraged more than ever about the direction of the organization and the impact the<br />
club has on area youth. Our youth membership continues to rise and programming is more varied, targeted,<br />
and expanding. Additionally, the collaborations and consistency between the leadership team and the overall<br />
activities at each of our sites is exemplary. Mr. Desmond brought us a vision and he is to be credited for his<br />
leadership in being the catalyst for the positive changes we have observed during his two years as Executive<br />
Director.<br />
For me, it is the compelling stories about the many children who truly have found a home at the Club that inspires so many<br />
of us. For the third consecutive year, the people of this community have responded so generously to support the <strong>Clubs</strong>’<br />
delivery of programs which positively impact the young people we serve. Together, it is the cumulative efforts of many<br />
dedicated people which have made a difference in the lives of all of the children we serve….and like it states within our<br />
mission, “especially those who need us the most.”<br />
A “Big Thanks” to everyone for your continued support and for doing your part in making that difference, each and every<br />
day.<br />
Scott Mihalovic<br />
Past President, Board of Directors<br />
The <strong>Boys</strong> & <strong>Girls</strong> <strong>Clubs</strong> of Greater La Crosse remains committed to our mission to inspire all youth,<br />
especially those who need us most, to realize their full potential as productive and caring citizens. And as long<br />
as there is even one child or family in need, our goals have not been completely reached.<br />
Good to Great! I am so proud of our staff and feel grateful to be a part of such a dedicated team. The entire<br />
staff is committed to make the <strong>Boys</strong> & <strong>Girls</strong> <strong>Clubs</strong> of Greater La Crosse the model of excellence by continuing<br />
to focus on the impact we can make on the youth of the La Crosse area. We owe it to our youth and we owe it<br />
to our benefactors who give so generously and unselfishly to support the work that we do.<br />
Because of the commitment of our staff, the dedication of our Board of Directors and the generosity of our donors, I am<br />
pleased to summarize the following highlights from <strong>2010</strong>:<br />
♦ Our programming has expanded in quality and consistency to support our three core values: Academic<br />
Success; Character & Leadership; Healthy Life Styles.<br />
♦ Our Athletic Programs continue to grow: Our football program served over 500 youth while our basketball<br />
and baseball programs had over 400 participants.<br />
♦ After a near catastrophe in West Salem, plans are moving forward to build a permanent <strong>Boys</strong> & <strong>Girls</strong> Club<br />
in West Salem, and the temporary site is serving more youth than ever.<br />
♦ Our Youth of the Year, Damian Wiblin, competed and was a finalist for Youth of the Year in the entire<br />
State of Wisconsin.<br />
All of this and more could not have been accomplished without the extraordinary support of our benefactors. Our “Circle<br />
of Friends” annual fundraising campaign raised over $300,000 for the second consecutive year.<br />
We continue to raise the bar in terms of our goals for 2011 which include our primary goal of expanding our hours and<br />
services that we offer our teen members. The need continues to grow to offer a safe, positive place for teens.<br />
Thank you again for allowing me to serve you and thank you for your investment in the youth that we serve. Each and<br />
every day we continue to strive to make a difference in the life of young people.<br />
Thank you for your support,<br />
Mike Desmond, Executive Director<br />

2011 <strong>Boys</strong> & <strong>Girls</strong> <strong>Clubs</strong> of Greater La Crosse<br />
Youth of the Year:<br />
Damian Damian Wiblin<br />
Wiblin<br />
Damian Wiblin first came to the <strong>Boys</strong> & <strong>Girls</strong> Club as a shy freshman, invited by friends to play<br />
basketball.<br />
He said he liked what he saw.<br />
“I decided it was a good fit,” he said. “The staff and other people and other people around here<br />
caught my eyes as good leaders. Other members of the club in general made me feel welcome.<br />
Wiblin soon was playing 16 and under baseball, Midnight League basketball and helping out where he<br />
could.<br />
Now the Logan High School senior has been selected as Youth of the Year by the <strong>Boys</strong> & <strong>Girls</strong> <strong>Clubs</strong><br />
of Greater La Crosse. The title recognizes Wiblin, 18, for his outstanding contributions to family, school,<br />
community and the <strong>Boys</strong> & <strong>Girls</strong> Club, as well as personal challenges and obstacles overcome.<br />
“He has grown so much since he started coming to the club...the person he has turned into is a great<br />
role model,” according to Nicole Brei, Erickson Site Director.<br />
Wiblin, son of Leah Wrobel, was nominated for the Youth of the year recognition after being named<br />
Boy of the Year at the Erickson <strong>Boys</strong> & <strong>Girls</strong> Club. In March, he spoke at the State Youth of the Year<br />
banquet in Madison.<br />
Damian plays baseball for Logan High School and the American Legion. He has volunteered at the St.<br />
Clare Health Mission for eight years, and helped with the Steppin’ Out in Pink walk for breast cancer.<br />
