Youth Groups Get New Spaces in Oakland County

DETROIT-The juggle of public-owned space and non-profit space is continuing in south Oakland County. Royal Oak is set to open a new $4.3-million facility that will be used in the late afternoon and evening by the Boys and Girls Club of South Oakland County.

The 36,000-sf building on Lincoln Street will also offer recreational space to senior citizens before 3 p.m. After that, the children and teens will take over.

The club sold property and a 50-year-old facility to the city last year, and the city began the renovation process. Opening day is Sept. 3.
