Our Home in Hooversville
In Hooversville, we’re known for our “mine and mill” forged work ethic, tight-knit families, and tenacious perseverance. As industries have disappeared and given way to new technologies and innovations, our neighbors struggle to continue our proud way of life. But the heart and strength of our region are alive and well. In our town, people call one another by name; we help in times of triumph and tragedy. The Tackle Box is proud to call Hooversville home and boldly move forward to provide families with fun, adventure, and opportunity. Together we’ll learn, grow, and prepare for our bright future.
