Friends of Pepperell Recreation

Volunteering For and With You
to Improve Recreation in Pepperell

YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT IS NEEDED...

Proceeds from our fund raisers, as well as your continued donations, will go toward projects like:

Seasonal maintenance of the new Friends of Pepperell Town Ice Rink.

A security camera that would pan Town Field, including the playground, bandstand and other areas. Details to be determined.

Further enhancements to the play space. We're planning to jump right in to our next project of a paved walking track at Town Field. Imagine the opportunity for movement for young and old - bikes, scooters, strollers, walkers, joggers, roller blades...

Much needed improvements to the tennis courts behind Varnum Brook Elementary School.

FRIENDS OF PEPPERELL IS A SUN-SAFE ORGANIZATION

Providing tips and reminders to help you stay safe when you're outdoors in the sun...

• Learn more about SunGuard™ — an easy-to-use laundry aid that washes UV protection right into everyday clothes.

• Use a moisturizer with SPF 15 or 30 for everyday activities that don't put you in the sun for extended periods.

• For long stretches of time spent outside, choose a "broad-spectrum" product. Look for the Skin Cancer Foundation's Seal of Approval for these types of products.

• Always apply sunscreen 30 minutes before heading out into the sun. Reapply it again right after going outside, in case you missed any spots.

• Reapply sunscreen every two hours.

The mission of The Friends of Pepperell Recreation is to promote community involvement for the betterment of the Pepperell community, its citizens and its recreational facilities. Our goal is to encourage support through both financial and volunteer opportunities for the broadening of services and activities for all ages.

The Friends of Pepperell Recreation is a non-profit organization.

Town Ice Rink Grand Opening a Big Success!
"Saturday afternoon, the snow stopped falling and the troops mobilized to prepare the rink for the opening celebration. ... The afternoon brought waves of people to the rink to enjoy a glide around ice, trade out skates for this year's size, enjoy a cup of hot chocolate with whipped cream and marshmallows, and to thank the Friends of Pepperell and the many volunteers who set up the rink and opened it for winter fun! ..."
