TEEN SCENE SHIRT PICKUP REMINDER!

Teen Scene starts soon, and all participants are required to wear an official Teen Scene shirt on every trip.

★ One shirt is included with each week's registration
★ Shirts from previous Teen Scene summers may also be worn
★ Shirts must be picked up at the Recreation Office before June 12

Families should have received an email on Friday with important information regarding: required waivers where applicable, shirt pickup details, & weekly communication through Remind

Please check your email and stop by the Recreation Office as soon as possible to pick up your participant's required shirt. We can't wait for another great summer of Teen Scene adventures! ☀️🚌😎

Due to the forecasted weather, the start of the Memorial Day Parade has been moved to 10:00 AM. While this was a difficult decision, the parade must go on!

We invite the entire community to continue this wonderful tradition with us and join us following the parade at Veterans Memorial Park for free hot dogs, drinks, and ice pops. 🇺🇸

🇺🇸 One week until Berkeley Heights’ Memorial Day Parade! 🇺🇸

Join us as our community comes together to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

📍 Memorial Day 2026
🕤 Step-off at 9:30 AM sharp
🎖️ Parade concludes at Veterans Memorial Park

We hope to see families, friends, neighbors, and community groups lining the streets and marching with pride as we remember those who served.

Let’s honor their legacy together. 🇺🇸

🎉 FUN FACT FRIDAY 🎉

Did you know the Recreation Department partners with local Boy Scouts working toward their Eagle Scout rank to help improve our community?

From park enhancements to community improvement projects, Scouts work with our Associate Recreation Director, Carolyn George, to brainstorm ideas that meet the needs of the town. The Recreation Department then helps guide projects through the planning process by coordinating with township departments and ensuring all work meets necessary codes and requirements.

Happy Mother’s Day to the amazing moms who help make our Recreation Department and community so special! 💐

Today we celebrate the women who spend their days teaching, coaching, organizing, supporting, cheering on, and caring for others — both at home and throughout our programs all year long. Your kindness, patience, strength, and dedication make a lasting impact on so many families in our community.

To all of the moms on our Recreation team, and to every mother, grandmother, stepmom, aunt, and mother figure in our community — we hope your day is filled with love, appreciation, and a little time to relax. 💖

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Recreation!
