The city of Claremont has released its fall 2012 Claremont Recreation & Activities Guide, available at city hall or online.

The seasonal guide provides a detailed account of citywide recreational activities through December 2012. Activities highlighted include afterschool youth programs, new and returning recreational classes, the Fall Flu Shot Clinic and the Halloween Spooktacular.

Residents can choose from a variety of classes this fall like Egyptian belly dancing, baby sign language and “the bully proof workshop,” a new martial arts class designed to help give children the confidence and skills to defend themselves properly against bullies. There is even a class to learn the bagpipes. Courses are available for all ages from young children to seniors.

To find out more, view the recreation guide online at the city’s website or call 399-5490 for more information.
