The Geography Game Show

Neal Nichols, creator and host of “The Geography Game Show” is coming to Brewster Rec!! Stay

tuned for details and information on our website.

The “Map Man” can draw a map of the world from memory and name

many of the tiny bits therein.

A Message From Wendy… What a spectacular summer! I want to extend a huge thank you to the entire Brewster Rec Summer Staff. With-out their hard work and dedication, our summer programs would not have been as successful as they were. With that said, I am excited to intro-duce more new programs for the whole family to enjoy. Always remember, without your feedback and sugges-tions, this department would not be able to function as efficiently as it does. So please, keep those comments coming whether it’s by email or phone!

I look forward to seeing you this Fall!

Warmest regards,

Wendy Wendy Allegrone, Director
