Town of Newton Recreation

Welcome to the Recreation Department of the Town of Newton.

  • Memory Park is situated at the heart of Newton only minutes away from Spring Street and the Rt. 206 shopping corridor. Memory Park boasts a full size 90' baseball diamond as well as several Little League fields, softball fields, a full-size soccer field and a youth football field. In addition, visitors to Memory Park can enjoy a playground designed for children from ages 2-9 and a shady picnic grove that makes the perfect spot for a relaxing afternoon. Memory Park is also home to the Newton Pool.
  • Pine Street Park is a hidden gem, located at the end of a quiet residential street. Pine Street Park is home to our small sized youth soccer games and also has a small playground for young children. Pine Street Pond, within the park, is a quiet spot for catching frogs and exploring the outdoors. There is also an updated basketball court that hosts friendly games throughout the spring and summer.
  • Summit Avenue Park is a unique park for this area. The park has a small shelter and benches adjacent to a pond. The park is a favorite for locals walking their dogs.
  • Newton Town Pool is a beautiful amenity and free for Town of Newton residents.
