About Town of Madison Recreation
Madison Recreation is comprised of and supported by our entire Madison community and its dedicated volunteers who are instrumental to Rec’s success.
Recreation Director
Town of Madison Recreation is led by our incredible Recreation Director, who somehow manages all things Rec as a part-time position while keeping a full-time day job.
From Summer Camp (planning, purchasing, directing, working as a hands-on camp counselor) to Youth Sports (organizing programs, coordinating coaches, scheduling games, on-site support at tournaments) to Community Events (gathering donations and supplies, recruiting volunteers, decorating, set-up, take-down) and everything in between, our Rec Director leads the charge.
Town Recreation Committee
Our volunteer Recreation Committee is comprised of a dedicated group of Madison citizens who spend countless hours planning and budgeting all Rec programs and events, volunteering at events and as sports coaches, leading programs, and generally supporting our Recreation Director wherever and whenever possible.
The committee was established in 2022 to identify recreation activities and programs for the residents of Madison, to plan, promote, and deliver those programs to our community, and to coordinate the wonderful volunteers who lead, teach, coach, and support.
The Recreation Committee meets monthly on the first Thursday of each month at the Madison Town Hall lower level meeting room. We welcome the community to join in with their ideas and support. Please see our Calendar of Events for specific dates and times.
Volunteers
Madison Rec is incredibly lucky to have a small army of volunteers without whom so many Rec programs and events would not be possible.
They volunteer as sports coaches, event decorators, pancake flippers, carnival game attendants, dunk tank sitters…
You name it, our volunteers are there to help! Contact Us to learn more ways to support Rec.
Sponsors and Donors
In addition to the individuals and families that volunteer with Madison Recreation, there are many generous community members and local businesses who financially support these programs and events and help bring them to our community.
Sponsors of sports uniforms, summer camp shirts and water bottles, and Burke field banners…
Donors of food and supplies for community events and summer camp – including a private donation of 50 HUGE pumpkins for our carving event! Thank you!
