Southborough Recreation is again embracing National Parks & Recreation Month by putting on a series of free community events throughout July.
Most of these are drop-in activities open to the public — no registration required.
Many of the events are ones that I already posted information about. So, I’ll start the list with ones that I haven’t covered yet.
Popsicles at the Playground
July 16th, 12:30 pm @ the playground at the South Union Building (21 Highland Street)
I’m assuming the event is as simple as it sounds — free popsicles for families who turn up to play at the playground. But if more details emerge, I’ll share them.
Outdoor Yoga
Family Fun Friday Yoga
Friday, July 25th, 5:00 – 6:00 pm @ Neary Field (53 Parkerville Road)
Another yoga session in the park for all ages. It will be led by instructor Emma Bartolini from the outdoor stage. To register, click here.
Yoga on the Trails – for adults
Saturday, July 26th, 9:00-10:00 am @ Sudbury Reservoir Trail
This adult-only event will also be led by Emma Bartolini. Registration is requested and location details are specified here. (Hit the orange button and select July 26th. Note: As of this afternoon, it mistakenly refers to the date as 2024. Just ignore that.)
Golfing Discount
In a late addition to the posted slate of programs, Rec is working with the Southborough Golf Club to offer discounts for Tuesdays in July (before 3:00 pm).
The $12 discount rate is only for Southborough residents (and you must show valid ID. The fee does not cover carts. To book a tee time click here or visit the golf shop.
Summer Block Parties
Two parties with DJs are planned. For more details on the fun planned, see dedicated post.

Outdoor Story Times
Wednesdays, July 2, 16, & 30, 4:30 pm @ the Southborough Library lawn (25 Main Street)
These are just some of the dates for the story times the Southborough Library is holding for its Summer Reading program. You can read more here.
Thursday Morning Running Group
Thursdays, all month, 7:00 am start-time @ Trottier Middle School outdoor track (49 Parkerville Road). (Read more here.)
Summer Concert Series
This summer’s concert series includes two concerts this month (and more in August).
You can read the about The Rampage Trio concert scheduled for Wednesday, July 16th, here.
You can read about the July 23rd kids’ concert and other scheduled events here.
Updated (7/3/25 11:08 am): The Family Yoga event will have a registration page — it’s just not available yet. And Rec added a golf discount on Tuesday mornings in July. Stay tuned for those details.
Updated (7/3/25 5:28 pm): I added the golf details and the Family Yoga registration link.
