Grants keep Club Mentor going

KENNEWICK -- In the Mid-Columbia, stimulus money from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act has been spent to clean up Hanford, assist first-time homebuyers, help small businesses and finish rebuilding Road 170 in Franklin County.
But few people know it also helped pay for Club Mentor at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Benton and Franklin Counties last year. The money runs out this month, and while Greg Falk, Boys & Girls Clubs president, expects the federal grant to be renewed, it hasn't happened yet.
