Parks and Recreation
Southbury’s Parks and Recreation Department does an excellent job providing residents with a variety of activities and programs that keep them busy throughout the year. From lacrosse, soccer and basketball to Pop Warner Football and Babe Ruth or Cal Ripken baseball, there’s a chance for everyone to have fun! Additionally, the department regularly holds events for members of the community. These include the annual Easter Egg Hunt, Memorial Day picnics and parades, summer concerts in the park, and the holiday tree lighting.

Playgrounds for the little ones are located at Lakeside, Ballantine and Cedarland Parks. Additionally, residents can take advantage of the fitness trail and walking track at George Ewald Park, or if you would rather go boating, Lake Lillinonah and Town Beach on Lake Zoar include boat ramps and docks. Southbury residents looking to practice their swing out on the greens can head to Heritage Village Golf Club, Pomperaug Golf Club, and Gainfield Farms Golf Course.
