Welcome to Rec Connect!
Rec Connect is brought to you through a Tri-Town partnership between the Northborough, Southborough and Shrewsbury Recreation Departments. Our goal is to offer engaging recreation and social opportunities to our community members with diverse abilities.
This adaptive program structure is designed for participants with disabilities and their families and friends to come together and build meaningful relationships while enjoying recreational opportunities, leisure activities, events and community outings. All Rec Connect programs are staff supported to ensure a structured and welcoming environment.
