Toms River rolls out fall recreation programs for kids and families with easy online registration

Toms River, NJ – With the school year underway, Toms River Township is launching a full lineup of fall recreation programs designed to keep kids and families active, engaged, and learning outside the classroom. Registration is now open through the township’s Community Pass system, offering a one-stop portal for parents to sign up.

The kids are back to school, so that means we need to make plans for when they are out of class. Recreation has a cooking session, tennis lessons, STEM programs, karate, skateboarding, the always popular Marine Science Mondays, and programs for the days off from school – tennis and multi-sports.

Register via Community Pass – https://register.capturepoint.com/reg/index.cfm and additional information related to Recreation activities can be found on the Recreation webpage – https://www.tomsrivertownship.com/211/Recreation
