WHERE TO BE
Robbins Farm Park Foliage and City Views
Robbins Farm Park, also called Skyline Park, is a great spot to enjoy the leaves as they start to change colors and view the Boston skyline. Stop by for a few hours with a good book, or even rent picnic tables. The park is located across from Brackett Elementary School and features a playground, baseball diamond, soccer field, picnic tables, green space, and on-street parking.

Senior Stroll Friends of the Fells
Friends of the Fells is a group that works to promote the conservation, appreciation, and sustainable enjoyment of the Middlesex Fells Reservation. On September 26 and October 10, they are hosting a Senior Stroll to explore the Fells and learn about local plants! You must register for this event in order to attend. The difficulty is easy to moderate. The pathways are not paved, and hiking boots are recommended.
WHAT TO DO
Arlington Town Day September 20, 2025
A local tradition since 1976, Town Day is one of our team's favorite days of the year. Join us on Saturday, September 20th, from 10:30 AM to 4:30 PM, along Mass Ave between Pleasant Street and Jason Street–rain or shine. Come connect with local vendors and neighbors, hear live music, eat good food and more!
Visit Elizabeth Island in Spy Pond Kayak and more
Spy Pond is a great place to visit year-round, but while it's still warm, you can break out the paddle boards, kayaks, canoes, or small-engine boats and make your way to Elizabeth Island! There is a boat ramp available at Spy Pond. This unique two-acre island within Spy Pond is home to a diverse plant community, birds, and more. The island co-holds the permanent conservation restriction with Mass Audubon.
