Participating groups included the Westborough Historical Society, Metrowest SHINE, NEADS Service Dogs, Westborough Lions, WASA, Civic Club, the Police Department, Town Moderator John Arnold, Massachusetts Senior Games, Boroughs Islamic Society, India Society of Worcester, Westborough Senior Center, Westborough Community Land Trust and St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church.

In the other gym, visitors could learn how to play pickleball and cornhole, as well as the basics of Bollywood dance.
