MARTINSBURG, W.Va. – Everyday in the Eastern Panhandle there are individuals making a difference in the life of a child.  On Sunday, April 12 the Boys & Girls Club of the Eastern Panhandle will honor one individual who has touched the community and the lives of many local children.

The Boys & Girls Club of the Eastern Panhandle’s 2015 Champion for Youth Honoree is Pat Murphy, a 45 year volunteer with the Boys & Girls Club.  Murphy, a retired educator and former Berkeley County School Board member, was instrumental in establishing the photography program at the Boys & Girls Club.
