[08/29/20]   Hi All,

We were hoping to extend NARA Beach operations, but most of our staff have returned to college and we don’t have an appropriate amount of lifeguards to staff the beach. The beach is officially closed for the season, but that doesn’t mean you can’t come by for a swim. Swimming is at your own risk. Please feel free to enjoy the park and beach and we’ll see you in 2021!

Our 20/21 Fall Winter Program Booklet is now available. We have great activities and programs offered for all ages - https://actonma.gov/DocumentCenter/View/6528/2021-Fall-Winter-Recreation-Program-Booklet

Here's a quick e-clip! Beach dates extended, NARA Camp extended, our new 24/7 drop box... https://conta.cc/3iLD709
