The Town of Clifton Park, together with the Historic Preservation Commission, is committed to protecting and preserving the Town’s history. The Clifton Park Historic Preservation Commission is a volunteer body appointed by the Town Board with the purpose of preserving and enhancing Clifton Park’s historic resources. They provide technical assistance to owners of historic properties, advise the Town Board and Planning Board on matters of preservation and educate the residents of Clifton Park on the treasures of their heritage. The Commission meets at Historic Grooms Tavern at 7:00 p.m. on the third Thursday of each month. Town residents interested in serving on the Commission can contact us at parksrec@cliftonpark.org.

Kids in the Kitchen classes are all about teaching budding chefs’ fun and healthy recipes and skills that will help them make good food choices. Did you know that kids who cook are more likely to try new things? Cooking with kids is a great way to teach them about measuring, following directions, nutrition, and especially kitchen safety.

LEARN TO PLAY AND PLAY BETTER! This program is designed to introduce children to the fun and excitement of tennis, utilizing the USTA’s Youth Tennis format. This game uses smaller racquets, lower nets, slower bounce balls, and easier scoring to enable kids to start playing right away. Children who are new to the game and those with some experience are encouraged to attend. This program meets 2 days per week for 4 weeks. A child may be registered for all 8 days, or any 6 days.
