Fall Recreation Guide Available!
We’ve just received word here at >Rockville Central that Our Fair City’s Fall Activity Guide is now available. That’s great news, because Summer’s drawing to a close and we were wondering just what to do. Watch your mailbox . . . or read on for more.
Rockville has one of the most extensive and well-run citizen recreation services around (just look at the staff in the photo), and it’s always a joy to see what’s on tap. A highlight: the new 16-and-over Ultimate Frisbee League!
The full guide is here (pdf). Or you can get to individual chapters here. If you’d rather just get right to registering, you can use the City’s Rock Enroll system to search for and sign up for specific activities.
But there’s more. There’s a new foundation that makes it easy to support the City’s programs and also help your neighbors:
A resource for recreation scholarships is the new Recreation and Parks Foundation. This 501c3 organization has incorporated to raise funds to support Recreation and Parks programs, facilities and open space needs for the citizens of Rockville. Donations to the Recreation and Parks Foundation are considered a charitable contribution and are tax deductible (see page 68.) Your support through program registrations, “adding up” and donating to the Foundation will help those less fortunate attend programs with scholarship assistance.
This fall, we will continue our “People Helping People” campaign to assist those in our community who need it most. To provide much needed support to the Rockville Youth Recreation Fund, $1 has been added to each program costing $25-$99, and $2 is added to programs costing $100 or more. Added together, this small donation will help keep our fund active for those in need.
See you around the City!
P.S. The photo is of the City’s recreation staff. At front left, you can see Nina Herndon, who was a guest a few weeks back on Rockville Central Radio.
