Locals looking to hit the green can book weekend tee times at Whitetail Golf Club stationed on Klein Road, which offers private golf lessons as well as an indoor golf simulator. The nearby Southmoore Golf Course is another option for area golfers. After school, kids flock to the Moore Township Recreation Center. Containing several sports fields, a public track and a playground, the recreation center is a hot spot for residents of all ages to get the blood flowing. The park also serves as a central hub for community events. "Every year in August, we put on a huge Community Days celebration for all of the people with bands and fireworks and food vendors from all of the local churches that come for the non-profit. Everybody pitches in to make this a success because they want to continue to have this in their town," Miklas says. "You find people who move in from out of the area, and they absolutely love that we have things like this for the community."
