Goshen Club Offering Activities To Honor Hispanic Heritage Month

Members at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Elkhart County’s Goshen Clubhouse are incorporating a variety of activities into their afternoons to honor Hispanic Heritage Month. The national celebration runs through October 15.

Girl with paper art project As part of “brain gain” activities at the Club, members are creating crafts and learning about the culture and heritage.

Group of kids working at table on art projects “As a community, we can embrace each other’s values and be inclusive to all. We are providing a variety of activities here at Club and partnering with organizations like the Goshen Public Library to showcase the resources we have together to celebrate this month,” said Goshen Area Director Fidel Mireles.
