 Spring 2011
Introducing our new website:

A new website has been created for Mansfield Parks & Recreation and the Mansfield Community Center. The website has a new look and feel as well as a very user friendly format. You can access all the information that you used

to access from our old site in a much more efficient way now.
New Webiste
Through the use of a well organized contents bar on the left side of the site you can easily find the information you are looking for. As we continue to update the website with new information please feel free to give us your input on the site. We encourage feedback so we can better serve you, our members!

A Day at the Center, April 9

An annual favorite, the Kids' Flea Market will take place in the Community Center Gymnasium. Kids can rent a table for $5 and sell or trade some of their old stuff. Shopping is open to everyone, but only children in grades 1-8 may rent tables. Pre-registration is required. Please bring enough money to make change.  

In conjunction with New York Life Insurance Company, we will be offering FREE child fingerprinting. Children will be fingerprinted and photographed and ID cards will be made for the parents. In case of emergency, parents will have an easy to find kit that will include necessary information for the police.

 


 

Little Angels Bike Drive, April 9 
bike drive

 

 

The Mansfield Community Center will host a community wide Bike Drive for Little Angels, a non-profit organization committed to providing free bicycles to area residents in need of bicycles for exercise, fun and transportation.  On Saturday April 9th please consider donating bicycles, tricycles and bike helmets for local folks in need. Simply bring your donations to the front of the center and we take it from there!  All donors will receive two free guest passes for each donation. Last year we received over 100 bicycles for tots, children and adults.  Little Angel's volunteers evaluate bicycles and make any necessary repairs before donating them to area residents in need.  Residents in need of bicycles can contact Jay O'Keefe at 860-429-3015, 104 or Little Angels directly at 860-423-4290 ([email protected]).
