DIRECTORS CORNERAs we enter yet another spring and summer season we look ahead at what will be defined as a summer of change in our department. In an effort to bring forward the best opportunities for our community, we have introduced new activities and expanded upon existing staples of our department. For starters, we have moved to a full day camp model, accommodating the needs of families and giving us the ability to offer new and exciting programming. Free community events such as Summer Concerts and Summer Movies will take place for nine (9) consecutive weeks leading up to the 17th Annual Southborough Summer Nights Celebration. Recreation After School Programs (RAP) for session 4 & 5 are ready for you to view, and alternative programs such as Track and Field, Skateboarding, Tennis, and BEST Soccer are here for your consideration. On behalf of the Southborough Recreation Department I thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to seeing you this Spring and Summer!
