Kerry Luke is working at the Maverick 
as the Director of Operations at 
the Dykeman Branch.  Kerry includes 
the Maverick Club and Mr. Dykeman as 
the most influential people in his life 
(right behind his mother).  He wants 
to give back to the kids of Amarillo 
what was given to him by Mr. Dykeman 
and the Club - discipline, self respect, 
and respect for others. 

Kerry was recently named the 2000 
Youth Development Professional of 
the Year for the Southwest Region 
of Boys & Girls Clubs of America. 
 
His dedication to youth and the 
values he instills in them was a 
decisive factor in receiving the 
award. The staff, members, and 
Board of Directors are extremely 
proud to have a person of his 
caliber continuing the traditions 
of the Club. 

Kerry has 2 boys - JJ Luke 19, 
Freshman at WT A&M and employee 
of the Will Rogers Branch of the 
Maverick and Josh Luke, 15,

basketball teams.
