Play is for You and ME!

At Bath at Play, we believe that play is a cornerstone for every great community. In small neighborhoods and sprawling cities, play connects us, keeps us active; and leaves us smiling. From events like our competitive Heritage Games, high-energy and spirited Spring Colors Color Run, and the creative racing wonders of the Bath Buoy Derby, to our community play space projects, your support is the fuel that keeps our initiatives in play.

We aren’t just hosting community events, we are building a more connected, joyful, and active Maine.
