Sign Up for Fall Sports in Belleville

The Belleville Recreation Dept. wants to remind parents that sign ups are going on right now for fall sports.

Applications can be obtained and submitted at the Rec. House at 407 Joralemon Street, Monday-Friday 8am-4pm. These programs include:

Director Michael Wieners explained to patch a few months ago, "Our department is a low cost option for kids and parents. We provide organized quality recreation programs for residents. We always love to see the kids participate. We want as many kids to participate as possible.”

Registration for all programs must be completed at the Belleville Recreation Department. Parents must be present with their children in order to sign an application and must also provide proof of residency and a birth certificate. It is highly suggested that interested participants apply as soon as possible in order to guarantee placement.
