Recreational opportunities abound. Residents enjoy over 125 acres of parks, including Picnic Grove Park along the Fox River, which hosts the community’s annual fireworks celebration and boasts the area’s longest sledding hill. Thousands come each year to watch the Norge Winter and Summer Ski Jump Competitions. An Arts & Crafts show, car show and bike race are also held each summer.
The all-volunteer Recreation Council runs programs in baseball, basketball, softball, soccer and volleyball, as well as events such as a 5K run. Other recreational activities include bowling and biking, plus boating, waterskiing and fishing on the Fox River.
