Boys & Girls Club Chief Bob Langseth to Retire
Advertisement
After 38 years with Boys & Girls Clubs and the last decade as executive director in Santa Cruz County, Bob Langseth is retiring.
He is going to relax and spend time with his grandchildren.
Langseth has had a storied career with the clubs up and down the state.
He began his career as a college student in Chula Vista and after graduating from San Diego State University he moved north to Fallbrook where he was program and assistant director for six years before becoming an executive director for the first time in 1985.
He then moved to the Bay Area and led the San Leandro Boys & Girls Club and then the San Francisco Boys & Girls Clubs as executive director.
Board president Teresa Swart said, “Bob’s contributions to our community have been vast — from establishing Live Oak, Scotts Valley Clubhouses and remodeling the Santa Cruz clubhouse to everything in between. Bob’s vision brought back a robust co-ed basketball program including Biddy Ball for 1st and 2nd graders, new teen program areas, and an emphasis in supplemental education programs including strong partnerships with local school districts.”
She added, “Our single downtown clubhouse was serving about 130 youth per day back in 2011, with a total enrollment of 1,000 members. By 2019, the last year prior to the pandemic, our three clubhouses were serving 435 youth per day and had over 2,600 members.”
The board of directors is working closely with Langseth on a smooth transition via a comprehensive, fair and equitable search. n
