About Club McKinley
​​
Based on the premise that lasting and effective social change occurs one person at a time, the programs offered by Club McKinley are intended to foster the development of men in possession of a mature, balanced personality, capable of commitment, hard work and responsibility.
We believe this process begins at an early age - with engaged fathers laying the foundation for their sons to succeed in life - and remains the work of a lifetime.
As such, we support programs designed to take into account the intellectual, emotional and social needs of men at every age, beginning with Father & Son activities in grade school, and independent activities for high school boys.
Club Denali aspires to help boys and young men develop the values, skills, and attitudes necessary to become effective leaders in all stages of their life, by helping them to develop a strong character, to form true and loyal friendships and to learn the value of hard work as a means of service to others.
The Christian orientation of Club McKinley's programs is entrusted to the Catholic Prelature of Opus Dei.
