Sports
The success of the diversified sports instruction; recreation and competitive travel teams are attributed to the efforts of the recreation department and organized volunteer groups with Board of Directors who give themselves above and beyond. Clearly it is the unselfish giving of time and dedication to our youth that provides the opportunity for participation in a wide range of sports experience. If you are not currently involved, consider joining the volunteers whose time and energy truly benefits the children of North Caldwell.
