Reaching Out Now has been actively involved in creating supportive environments for the youth in Warren County. The organization recently took on the operation of the Raymond E. Santmyers Youth Center, aiming to provide essential youth activities and community support.

In the mid-1960s, the Front Royal Youth Center began its operations in Chimney Field, directed by Raymond Santmyers. Due to its popularity and the need for a better facility, the community came together to build the current Youth Center at the corner of 8th St. and Commerce Avenue. This center, built with the help of dedicated local volunteers, provided space for various activities, including game rooms, a TV room, and a large dance room. The youth were actively involved in its operation, electing a board of directors to make operational and financial decisions.

The Student Union & Activity Center will continue this legacy, providing a safe and engaging space for the youth of Warren County.

Join us to learn more about how you can partner with the Student Union & Activity Center to support our community’s youth!
