Director’s Message
We just completed a busy summer with record numbers of kids in our various camps. Many
programs were full and special events were well attended.
We are ready to charge into the fall with a continuation of our successful programs from
pre-school classes to various fitness programs and active adult pickleball. New programs include
adaptive ballet, Cool-ology science, baby & me yoga, cultural cooking and after school flag
football. We have also scheduled the annual Fall Festival for October 8th at Jacobs Beach.
Our Parks Maintenance crew will be working hard to keep athletic fields in good playing
condition for all athletes of all ages. The fields at Cox School will be closed for repairs. The 2
upper fields will be re-graded and irrigation will be installed to allow our crew to better
maintain those fields.
We welcome Shawn Keogh as our new Program Coordinator and credit him with the design of
this brochure.
Thanks for being a part of our program. We hope you enjoy your autumn in Guilford!
Sincerely,
Rick Maynard
Parks and Recreation Director
