Recreation
Mission Statement
The mission of the West Reading Recreation Commission is to create, as well as provide a diverse number of programs, services, and events for borough residents. These activities enrich the physical and social development of our children while maintaining a safe environment and helping to meet the recreational needs of the community.
The borough is home to a 21-acre park which features facilities including a cutting edge pickleball court, 9-hole disc golf course, baseball/softball fields, stone pavilion, gravel track, volleyball court, walking trails, basketball courts along with a community swimming pool. The Recreation Commission which meets regularly to plan events and projects is always looking for volunteers, so if you have the time come out and join us!
Throughout the year, the Recreation Department hosts a variety of activities including the Easter Egg Hunt, Christmas Tree Lighting, and Haunted Hayride just to name a few. Every summer borough children are invited to take part in the Playground Program that provides activities for children ages 5-12.
For more information on events, or if you'd just like to lend a helping hand, please contact the Recreation Director at Borough Hall at (610) 374-8273, ext. 243 during regular business hours, Monday - Friday 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
