The Fort Atkinson Parks and Recreation Department has announced that its fall/winter guide will be available digitally beginning Sept. 1 and in print Sept. 6.
According to information released by the department, the guide will feature new programming inspired by the recent Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan survey.
The new guide will be interactive allowing residents to register for their activities while viewing the guide digitally, the release noted.
“In addition to offering basketball, volleyball, and karate for all ages, make sure to flip through the online interactive flipbook and see all the new additional activities you can take advantage of. Adult Recess, Coffee Cruisers, Pickleball Beginner and a Disc Golf drop-in league are some of the new activities. There are also some old and new favorites returning from prior years such as Start Smart Golf, Stuff n’ Fluff, the Youth Basketball Officials Clinic, and Deck the House,” Parks and Recreation Director Brooke Franseen was quoted as saying in the release.
“Along with Deck the House, Double 3 Transportation is sponsoring a free Holiday Lights Bus Tour to view all of the Fort Atkinson houses that are submitted to the contest. Registration will be required,” the release stated.
“We are very excited to offer new programming that has been specifically requested through the Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan,” Franseen continued.
Franseen said she is especially excited about the new, free event called “Adult Recess,” open to participants who are 21 and older, which, the release noted, will allow “adults to be kids for the night.” The program includes playground games; organized games, such as kickball and dodgeball; concessions; beverages, and glow disc golf putting, among other activities.
A link to the fall/winter guide will be made available at fortparksandrec.activityreg.com beginning Sept. 1 at 8 a.m. Registration also will open at that time, according to the release.
Printed copies of the guide will be made available at the Parks and Recreation office, 30 N. Water St., as well as the Fort Atkinson Municipal Building, the Fort Atkinson Senior Center, Dwight Foster Public Library, Hoard Historical Museum and the Fort Atkinson Area Chamber of Commerce.
