In our efforts to protect the health and safety of our community and due to the recent updates from the Department of Health regarding the wearing of masks while participating in outdoor activities, the Township has decided to cancel the Youth Baseball Camp and Youth Field Hockey League for this summer. We apologize for the inconvenience, appreciate your understanding and look forward to bringing these programs back to you next summer.
