Former American Idol Ruben Studdard took some time from his music camp to spend a few moments at the Wiregrass Boys and Girls Club.

Studdard was once a Boys and Girls Club member himself.

He grew up within the organization and has since been inducted into the boys and girls club hall of fame.

He wanted to visit the club to encourage it's current members to continue to dream big.

"I feel like it's good for the young people to see someone who's been where they've been. I've been in camp, I've been with that shirt on everyday, I've done this. So for them to see me where I am now, I think would be a great inspiration to them," said Studdar.

Ruben will be hosting a grand finale concert with his music camp Sunday.

It will begin at 6-o'clock in the evening at James A. Smith Convocation Center next to Northview High School.

Admission is 10-dollars and will benefit the Ruben Studdard Foundation Music Scholarship program.
