Many programs offered at Batavia Park District have sessions for different ages. Explore all of the different activities and see if they are perfect for your entire family.
Gather and Remember is a free monthly drop in program in the Callahan Community Center Sky Loft, located across from the Batavia Depot Museum at 150 Houston Street. Each month will offer a special topic for community members to drop by and tell their stories. This program runs monthly. Registration is encouraged but drop-ins are welcome.
This month's topic is "Worship and Praise". Faith and fellowship have long been at the heart of community lift. In this session, we’ll share memories of worship, music and spiritual traditions that brought people together and shaped meaningful moments across generations.
