Peters Township recently released the following announcements.
How to Help Your Children Pursue Their Natural Gifts
When: Sunday, April 10
Time: 1 – 2 p.m.
Presented by: Nancy Jean Morrison
Every child has special gifts that begin to emerge as early as four or five years of age, which parents and caregivers are in the unique position of observing and nourishing. Identifying a young person’s talents can mean the difference between surviving the turbulent adolescent years or drowning in them. This presentation is designed to help parents and caregivers discover and nourish the talents of those under their care.

Celebrating Shakespeare
When: Saturday, April 23, 2016
Time: 1 – 2 p.m.
