FROM THE DIRECTOR

It is hard to believe that another year is coming to a close and a new year is just around the corner. That makes this the perfect time to take advantage of all that Gaithersburg Parks, Recreation and Culture has to offer. I hope you will sign up for a class that piques your interest, enjoy the amazing Winter Lights Festival, or take a peaceful stroll in one of our beautiful parks.

And let’s talk New Year’s Resolutions… You can burn off those extra holiday pounds in one of our many fitness programs or by swimming laps at the Gaithersburg Aquatic Center, learn a new skill in one of our creative arts classes, or sign up to participate in one of our athletic leagues.

I hope you enjoy this Winter Go! Gaithersburg Guide, and take advantage of the wonderful opportunities for all ages to move, play and grow!
