The Hanover Township Summer Open Gym program will kickoff on Monday, June 4 and continue through Friday, Aug. 3.

Township youth are eligible to participate in a wide variety of free recreational, educational, and social activities in School District U-46 gyms as well as the township's Izaak Walton Center & Reserve in Elgin.

At the reserve, youth will experience the outdoors with nature walks, cookouts, scavenger hunts and other outdoor activities in the sprawling 11 acres of green space. Township staff will offer archery at the reserve throughout the summer.

Over 560 youth participated in last year's program. For more information and to inquire about volunteering, please contact James Mix at Hanover Township Youth and Family Services at (630) 483-5799.
