The annual AB Skate FUNdraiser is held in March at the Nashoba Valley Olympia Rink (rink #3) on route 111 in Boxborough. ALL proceeds benefit AB STEAM, local food pantries, AB energy initiatives, non-profits and charities.
Thanks for joining us on Sunday, March 2, 2025 for the Annual AB Community Skate FUNdraiser and AB STEAM meet-up. Visit the AB Community FUNdraiser Page for a full event recap and photos.
Around town, you will see BE KIND lawn signs, a tribute to longtime Acton resident, Caroll Spinney, best known as the beloved Big Bird from Sesame Street. The signs honor his legacy of spreading joy, learning, and compassion—reminding us that kindness, much like Big Bird’s lessons, never goes out of style.
BE KIND signs are available for local pickup or delivery for $25. These signs support AB Community fundraiser causes. Email actonpip@gmail.com for information or to order.
Acton's extensive network of conservation lands includes trails, forests, wetlands, and open fields for hiking, bird watching and nature observation.
The Acton Nature Guide provides a map of Acton's conservation lands plus pictures of local birds, butterflies, insects, wildflowers, pond life, mammals, trees and invasive plants. It's a perfect companion to your own self guided walks.
You can borrow an Acton Nature Guide from the Acton Memorial Library and the West Acton Citizens' Library or buy one at Kitchen Outfitters in Acton Woods Plaza, Pedal Power on Route 2A in Acton or Silver Unicorn Books in West Acton. Find out more. Proceeds support popular AB STEAM activities.
