Would you like to learn more about the cultures that make up Washington Township? Would you like to learn more about your own? Come join the Teen & Tween Heritage Club!

Each month we'll explore our different cultures. Teen leaders will determine the focus culture and the activities we'll explore. Activities can include: making crafts/items that are representative of a culture, foods specific to a culture, spending time online of one of our ancestry programs, and/or possibly learning some key words in the language of the culture. The topics are up to the teen presenter.

Join us to learn about your peers and explore your own background. The Heritage Club is open to teens and tweens in grades 6-12. Preference is given to Heggan Library cardholders. Register now; supplies may be limited.
