CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. (WEAU) – The Boys and Girls Club has officially opened its doors Wednesday to the community.

Kids ages 8 to 18 are welcome and the cost is just $10 a year.

"We have the spaces setup, the walls are painted, we can't wait to get the artwork up and to get the club feeling like a boys and girls club,” says Antonson.
