Opening day at Mt. Bethel Church recreation was Saturday, March 15 with a record number of post-covid participation filling the fields and the gyms.
Nearly 1000 athletes ages 4 -12 and 200 coaches from the Mt. Bethel Church community in East Cobb County played soccer, volleyball, flag football and baseball.
“Spring has definitely sprung around here” said Mt. Bethel Director of Recreation Dan Boswell. “We’ve seen a steady increase in registration of our year-round program especially in the past two years.”
In 2024 the recreation ministry, celebrating its 35th anniversary this year, fielded over 2,350 athletes with the support of 550 coaches. That represented all seasons and summer camps combined. “We are especially pleased by this spring season’s growth and are honored at the opportunity to reach so many families in our East Cobb community who love sports and our church,” said Boswell.
Mt. Bethel Church is here to lead people to trade the pursuit of more for a life worth pursuing in Jesus Christ. We serve our community in truth, freedom and purpose of God’s Word. The church is located at 4385 Lower Roswell Road in Marietta, GA. It serves the East Cobb County Georgia and international online communities with worship, connection, training and the pursuit of God to multiply leaders for the broader Church.
