Community Partners
Northville Public Schools is a key stakeholder, providing office space and critical recreation space for indoor programs. The gyms support daytime use of over 1,000 students and are programmed in the evening for community recreation programs. Since the high school gym is not available for public use, there is a high demand for 2 full size indoor gym facilities. The connection between an active and healthy youth and recreation helps support a successful community. Cooperation with public schools is an area of opportunity for expanding recreation.
