You may have noticed the closed parking lots at Bailey Road Park this summer. We were changing the tennis court and baseball field lights and light poles, taking down the old, faulty halogen system and replacing it with an updated LED system. This type of lighting will save the Town tens of thousands of dollars each year in power and maintenance costs!
We also spent the summer performing intensive rehab work on our natural surface ballfields and multi-purpose fields to get them in top playing shape for the busy fall season. That project included over 1,400 tons of sand!

Thank you to all who participated in our 2021 Summer Sports Camps, Summer Day Camps and Summer Arts & Recreation Summer Camps. We had a whopping 2,595 children in our camps!
We hope to see you next summer...
