The  Merrimack Parks & Recreation Department has teamed up once again  with the American Red Cross to host a Community Blood Drive at Wasserman  Park on Saturday, October 10th from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm.

The  American Red Cross is facing a shortage that has led to an "urgent  need" for blood donors of all types. Please consider donating an hour of  your time to give a pint a blood and help to save 3 lives. 

*All presenting donors will receive a COVID-19 Antibody Testing as well as a Parks & Rec Patriotic Buff/Mask.  The Blood Drive will be held in the Function Hall at Wasserman Park, 116 Naticook Road, Merrimack, New Hampshire.

Do you like to spend time outdoors? Accidents happen; if you or someone  in your group got hurt, would you know what to do? People get hurt,  sick, or lost.  Many back country emergencies are preventable and even  when bad things happen, sometimes the wrong care can make things worse.  

Wilderness  First Aid is the perfect course for the outdoor enthusiast or trip  leader who wants more than basic level of first aid training for short  trips with family, friends, and outdoor groups. 

The Parks & Recreation Department has now created a new online store and will offer a variety of Parks & Recreation and Naticook Day Camp items for sale. 

Quantities are limited and will remain available until they sell out.

Here your chance to get some great Parks & Rec gear which will be  shipped directly to you at no additional fee. The fee listed is inclusive of the shipping fee.
