60's Social for 6th, 7th and 8th graders Plus other Info

Hi Everyone,

Montague Recreation is happy to announce we are planning more activites for this year, in addition to activites already in place. On Tuesday nights you can participate in adult volleyball at the Elementary School. This was a success last year and has continued to be a success this year. On Thursday nights we have adult basketball, also at the Elementary School. This is also successful and we'd love to have one and all join these groups and have a wonderful time.

On thing you will see that is being done differently this year is that there will be fees charged for some activities. The reason behind this is that it will help to offset costs, which in turn allows us to bring even more activities to everyone in the Township. New activities are being planned for people at every age in town.

The next activity we are planning is another 6th, 7th and 8th grade social. The dance will be a 1960's themed dance with music from the 60's. We encourage everyone to come in their best 60's outfits. There will be prizes for the top 3 costumes. Best of all, there will be a LIVE BAND for this event, along with snacks for everyone. There will be a $4 fee for this activity. As before, parents will need to sign your children when when you drop them off and sign them out when you come to pick them up. After all, safety is the most important thing.

We welcome questions, comments, suggestions..... and you can write us at our new email address: montaguerecreation@live.com.
