Hanover Township Summer Open Gym to begin June 5

The Hanover Township Summer Open Gym Program will begin June 5 and run through August 4. This free program will be offered at four schools throughout the Township as well as the Izaak Walton Youth Center & Reserve (899 Jay Street, Elgin).

Youth will participate in a combination of team building activities, recreation, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) projects, and arts and crafts activities.
