Friends of Shelby and the Shelby Park Community Center present the 3rd annual Shelby Recreation Open House

All of the park’s activities in one place!

Find a new sport, pick up a hobby, or start learning a new skill.

The Shelby Recreation Open House is a celebration of all things that get us active - outdoors and in. Shelby Park and Bottoms is home to so many different pastimes from running to rowing, baseball to bird watching, tennis to trail hiking, and soccer to skating.

Join us for an open house showcasing all the amazing ways to have fun in the park! Tour the Shelby Park Community Center, play games, watch demonstrations, and more.
