Recreational Activities

Charles B. Schloff, Chair, Recreation Committee
The Rev. Marshall G. Dunlap, Recreation Director
“Fun and Recreation for All” has been more than a motto for Bay View Recreation for generations. For us, it is truly the way we do business. Whether you are in Bay View for the day, the week, or the whole summer, we have been preparing all winter to help you have a wonderful time. We offer a safe, stimulating environment in which children participate in healthy, creative activities and develop life-long friendships. Select youth and young adults are invited to staff our program, building on the tradition of looking out for each other that they learned as “campers” themselves, and working as a team to build on our tradition of excellence.
Recreation fees include age-appropriate morning activities at Tot Lot (ages 3-4), Fawns (5-6), and Boys’ And Girls’ Club (7-14), each located adjacent to Swift Field, and a daily half-hour swimming lesson (as weather permits). Additionally, instruction in tennis and sailing are available for a small fee, as are kayak and sailing rentals. Watch The Town Crier for announcements about special activities, events that are new this summer, and creative intergenerational activities we hope to offer occasionally in the evenings or on weekends!
