HARRISONITES of all ages are offered a comprehensive and diversified program of leisure time services under the auspices of the Harrison Recreation Department 670-3035. Year round indoor activities are conducted in the department's three community centers. Programs are designed to meet the interests and needs of pre-schoolers through senior citizens.

Outdoor activities including swimming, tennis, softball, baseball, and picnicking are enjoyed in community parks and on school fields. Five day camp programs are conducted throughout the community during the months of July and August.

Spicing the programs are special events including Spring Egg Hunts, Halloween Programs, Summer Concerts, and Sports Tournaments. An annual "It's Great to Live in Harrison/ Columbus Day Celebration" is held in October featuring a parade of marching bands and community organizations followed by a "fiesta" in the park across from the municipal building.

Program brochures and fliers are available at the recreation office in the municipal building and community centers. Residents are urged to visit the centers and/or recreation main office for additional information.

The Downtown Group meets every Friday from 12:00 p.m. through 3:00 p.m. at the Veterans Memorial Building, 210 Halstead Avenue. Dues are $24.00 per year. Refreshments are served.

Tuesday exercise classes from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Harrison Community Center.

The Visiting Nurse Services in Westchester visits our Senior Citizens Centers on a monthly basis to provide free blood pressure screening.
