The History of the Maverick Boys Club

The book The History of the Maverick Boys Club starts around 1934. It starts from the inception of the Maverick Club and the reasons it was formed. It was formed to keep kids off the streets and in trouble in the Depression times in Amarillo, TX. The Maverick Club offered sports, discipline, and the love of many caring people. The Maverick Club was a place to go to every day to stay busy and active. Moms and dads were in a bind in those days with trying to make enough money for a family which often caused dad to move where the monies were and mom to work full time and try to take care of the kids. This lifestyle festered into trouble for the kids. The local Businesses and Police force brought in the Maverick Boys and helped them to run a legal lifestyle. The Maverick Club is still in existence today, minus the sports. It still keeps impoverished kids off the streets, and a place to make lifelong friends.
