Director’s Corner

For the past 20+ months, due to COVID-19, we’ve adjusted the programming, services, and events
we offer to ensure the safety of our patrons, staff, and the community at large. During this time, the Parks &
Recreation Department has provided free and fee-based virtual programs for all ages, established a “Grab &
Go” lunch program for our seniors, and invented all sorts of home decorating contests, scavenger hunts,
activity and craft kits, and more to help the difficult times pass by more quickly. The Belmont Community
Learning Center and many of our partners have continued to provide child and enrichment care through-
out the pandemic, and our parks staff never skipped a beat maintaining our parks, fields, and open spaces,
which have been an invaluable respite for many.
A printed Activity Guide just didn’t make sense in that rapidly changing dynamic, but now we’re ex-
cited to deliver a new and improved Spring/Summer 2022 Activity Guide to you. What’s new and improved?
We’ve reduced the number of pages as we strive to be environmentally and fiscally responsible, but have
included directions to easily access more information for our youth and teen programs online - just follow
the QR codes!
As we continue to refine our efforts to bring you the latest information about Parks & Recreation
programs and events, we’re eager to hear from you on how best to reach you. Please let us know by
completing the brief survey on the back cover or online at bit.ly/connectwithbelmont
