County roundup: Grand opening scheduled for Crestwood Community Center, plus news from Hiram and Windham

The Mantua-Shalersville Area Chamber of Commerce invites the community to celebrate the grand opening and relocation of the Crestwood Community Center (CCC). The grand relocation event and official ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 2, at Crestwood’s central offices, Rooms 114 and 115, located at 10880 John Edward Dr. in the village of Mantua. Join in for light refreshments, games and guided tours. 

The CCC was established to provide nondenominational activities and programs for local adults. Its mission is to create a welcoming, inclusive space that fosters personal growth and community connections. The village of Mantua has been allowing the CCC to use the Martin S. Hura Lodge in Buchert Park as it established its organization. As the program has picked up new members and to give it a permanent home, the Crestwood school district has provided space for its activities. This will enable the CCC to expand its offerings to the community.
