As spring season approaches, Community Use is buzzing with exciting educational and recreational opportunities for residents of all ages. From our outdoor activities to personal development, there's something for everyone in our spring program lineup.

Boating Safety Course

Massachusetts boaters should take note of an important upcoming change: starting in 2026, all boat operators born after 1989 will be required to hold a boating certificate license. All operators born before 1989 will be required as of April 19, 2028. In preparation for this requirement, we have partnered with the Coast Guard Auxiliary to offer in-person certification classes. These sessions will cover the latest boating safety guidelines and regulations specific to Massachusetts waterways, ensuring our community's boaters are well-prepared for safe maritime adventures. 

Fitness Programs for Every Interest

Our adult education fitness programs continue to expand with a diverse range of offerings led by certified instructors. Whether you're looking to shake off the winter blues or continue your fitness journey. Participants can choose from popular favorites including Boot Camp, Swim Programs, Zumba, Circuit Fusion, and Yoga. These programs emphasize proper technique, with special attention to posture, body alignment, mindfulness, and injury prevention. 

We are particularly excited to introduce ChiWalking, our newest addition, which will meet Monday evenings at 5:45 p.m. at the Lions Club Pavilion at Louise Lake starting in April. Based on the Science of Natural Movement, ChiWalking blends modern biomechanics with time-tested T'ai Chi principles to create a revolutionary approach to walking. You will be guided through gentle, progressive techniques that work with your body's natural design—not against it. 

Photography 

Photography enthusiasts can perfect their skills just in time for wedding and prom season through our comprehensive photography classes. Additionally, we're proud to offer free workshops focused on Senior Safety, Retirement Planning, and Financial Well-being, demonstrating our commitment to supporting our senior community members.

Youth Activities & Vacation Programs 

Young community members have plenty to look forward to this spring. We've established a partnership with the Milford Youth Girls Softball program to facilitate in-town registration, while F.A.S.T athletics will provide activities for our PreK children.

We had a great February vacation week with an Olympic games theme and a week full of fun activities.

Watch for registration to be open soon for April vacation week. Community Use will host another engaging program featuring swimming, arts and crafts, sports, games, movies, and special surprise activities.

Registration for all programs is now open. For specific program details, schedules, and registration information, please visit our Website at milfordcommunityprogram.activityreg.com/clientpage_t2.wcs or contact the office at 508-478-1119.
