NUTLEY, NJ — The Nutley Department of Parks and Recreation winter schedule of educational classes and athletic programs is moving full speed ahead.

According to a township news release, the schedule includes opportunities for all residents, and has been designed to help people "maintain a healthy mental and physical outlook" during the winter months.

“After two challenging years, we are finally back to where we were pre-pandemic,” Commissioner Mauro Tucci said. “The winter months can be a difficult time for many. We strive to give everyone in town, from toddlers to seniors, outlets to stay busy, improve their health and in some cases, just have some fun.”
