The Night Sky: The Recreation Committee in collaboration with the library offered an evening of star gazing led by Tom Schielding. It was extraordinary! We plan to have more Night Sky offerings in August because the response was so positive. Standing in the dark looking up at the stars inspires awe!
TBD. The Recreation Committee in collaboration with the Open Space Committee sponsored a walk at Bright Water Bog (previously known as Ames Pond) led by Graeme Sephton. Graeme shared his knowledge about the trails and the history and flora and fauna of the area. The walk was a great success and we plan to have another one in the fall.
The Recreation Committee purpose:
The Recreation Committee develops recreational activities designed to build community and enrich the quality of life in Shutesbury. The Committee sponsors and supports recreational experiences and related educational programming for all age groups.
Are you interested in becoming a member of the Recreation Committee?
The Recreation Committee is looking for new members, and would especially benefit from members interested in bringing new ideas about how we can support and add to programs for children and their families. Currently the Recreation Committee sponsors an annual Family Field Day and was a co-sponsor of the kite flying event on the Town Common.
