Boys & Girls Club honoring Dale Gomer at annual dinner
– The Boys & Girls Club of North San Luis Obispo County will honor Dale Gomer, CEO of Paso Robles Waste & Recycle, as its 2015 “Champion for Children.” Gomer’s passion for underserved youth began when he was a probation officer, and supporting the Boys & Girls Club was a way he could honor his mother’s legacy and provide services to those who needed it most, the club says. Gomer’s mother, Ida, was instrumental in the establishment of the club in the early 90’s. Gomer has continued her legacy, serving as a board member for nearly 20 years and remains a major supporter of its programs. His leadership and advocacy have been crucial to the club’s success, according to the club.
