PERTH AMBOY – On 11/29/14 at Water’s Stadium there was an alumni football game between Perth Amboy and Carteret. Players took the field who graduated from one of the two high schools between 1980 and 2010. Players, referees and coordinators volunteered their efforts to support the Boys & Girls Club of Perth Amboy and Carteret. Funds benefited numerous BGC programs including Diplomas to Degrees, a college readiness program, which provides a range of services to guide Club members as they work toward high school graduation and prepare for post-secondary education and career success and Project Learn, which reinforces the academic enrichment and school engagement of young people during the time they spend at the Club. Studies show that students do much better in school when they spend their non-school hours engaged in fun, but academically beneficial, activities. *Photos by Bob Ned.
