In the beginning...

In early 1958, Civitan Cottage would be completed and ready for 16 boys. Rube N. McCray moved to Boys Home on June 1, 1958 and took over as full-time director. Lions Cottage was constructed under his leadership. After his second year as director a cottage was given to Boys Home by the Carolina Jaycees in 1962, by Kiwanis in 1964, by the Rotarys in 1966 and by the Optimists in 1968. Under McCray's guidance, Boys Home became one of the finest facilities in the nation.
