Community Activities & Outings

Gathering Hope House offers a variety of social and recreational opportunities that bring members together, encourage teamwork, and connect them with the broader community. These experiences also help members prepare for volunteer work, employment, and active participation in civic life.

Members take part in activities both at our site and throughout Lorain County. Recent events have included bowling, crafting, billiards, games, sporting events, chess club, nature walks, baseball games, cookouts, volleyball, gardening, and local talent nights with karaoke. These activities provide a chance to enjoy time with others, discover new interests, and strengthen skills that support community participation.

All activities are developed with member input through the Member Leadership Committee, monthly membership meetings, and ongoing feedback, ensuring the program reflects the interests and goals of those who participate.
