I wanted to provide the community and our sponsors an update on recent events and detail what’s ahead in 2022 as we enter into a new year of recreational and personal enrichment programming at RARA.

We are proud to have continued providing recreation programming to the communities of Rochester and Rochester Hills for 75 years, since 1946.

RARA served 10,000 participants last year and engaged in 1,000 activities, including baseball, basketball, soccer, volleyball, tee-ball, dance and field hockey. Our summer day camps continued to create lifelong memories for kids age 5-14. We also grew our partnerships significantly with local businesses to increase our enrichment, educational, and arts programs. Even though the pandemic continued, we offered safe activities both in person and online.

We have approximately 190 programs underway this month, including youth basketball, volleyball, judo, Magic indoor soccer, competition and recital dance programs, and baby sitters safety training classes.

What's next on the agenda? Our Spring Break Camp, Daddy Daughter Dance and Mother Son Date Night, and our Family Bingo Night are coming up. A total of 183 programs - youth baseball, softball and tee-ball and adult softball and cornhole leagues - are set to begin by the end of April. These will be followed by our popular summer camps, registration for which opens on April 1st.

If you want to play without any structure, come to our facilities at 480 and 500 E. 2nd St. You can enjoy the indoor playscape, turf fieldhouse, basketball/volleyball courts, inline hockey rink and fitness center.

RARA is pleased to offer a variety of recreational activities to the community that are designed to promote positive social interactions, confidence, and teamwork. Our Recreation Magazine provides detailed information about all the programs we offer, and you can also use our website to search for programs based on age, gender, day, or time. Registration is always open and can be easily completed online.

The activities and services offered will include, but are not limited to, recreational and enrichment activities for all ages, youth and adult sports programs (non-competitive and competitive), and activities for special populations.
