Aric T. Gorton, SuperintendentMark W. Albert, Senior Recreation Leader

A Message from the SupervisorDear Orangetown Residents:

Did you know that Orangetown has an amazing variety of recreation-al programs? It’s one of the reasons that I love living here. From golfcourses, soccer fields, playgrounds, and tennis courts to mountainforests and paved bike trails, Orangetown’s park system has it all.

Summer is one of the most exciting times of year in Orangetown’sparks. Under the leadership of Superintendent Aric Gorton, our Parks& Recreation Department has put together an outstanding set of programs for kids,teens, and adults!

Our two golf courses, the 27-hole Blue Hill and the 9-hole Broadacres, both now oper-ated successfully by Applied Golf, continue to draw faithful golf enthusiasts, while milesof trails and acres of open space call those seeking options for passive and active recre-ation.

Explore the Nike Site – formerly a Nike Hercules radar tracking station for the U.S. gov-ernment – offering hiking, open space, and scenic views from atop Clausland Mountain.Take a stroll along a stream in Pascack Brook Park, play tennis at Independence Park, orshoot some hoops at Veterans Memorial Park. Swing, slide and climb with your childrenin one of the many playgrounds throughout town.

One of the most visible and exciting additions to our parks system is the NYSDepartment of Transportation’s long-awaited work on Phase II of the Joseph B. ClarkeRail Trail. When completed, 1.25 miles will be added to the existing 2.5 mile trail, allow-ing residents to get from Blauvelt to Orangeburg, Sparkill, Palisades, Piermont,Grandview, South Nyack and Nyack on foot or on bike.

And don’t forget to enjoy the free summer concerts at Veteran’s Memorial Park – onceagain we have a great lineup of entertainment!

If you’re new to town, or haven’t yet explored all that our Parks & RecreationDepartment has to offer, we hope you’ll get outdoors, get moving, and visitOrangetown’s 26 town parks and open space areas this spring. Visiting a new park is agood way to explore a different part of Orangetown.

Have an idea for a new program you’d like the Town to offer – or a suggestion toimprove an existing program? Share your ideas by calling the Parks and RecreationDepartment at 359-6503 or emailing – [email protected].

Sincerely, Andy Stewart, Town Supervisor

MAD SCIENCE SUMMER 2016 CAMP TOPICS

BRIXOLOGYCamp lays the foundation for our next generation of makers! Kids learn aboutdifferent types of engineering and then team up to construct different engineer-ing-themed projects using LEGO® bricks. They learn about aerospace engineer-ing while assembling a space station. They explore mechanical engineering asthey build boats and vehicles. That’s not all…from carnival rides to drawingmachines, mechanical animals to truss bridges, your future engineer will buildupon their creativity to solve real-world design challenges, while developingtheir problem-solving and team-building skills. Take home projects are providedeach day, most of which are brick-based and can be used with LEGO® bricks athome. Let the tinkering begin!
