Community Involvement Day

Community Involvement Day brings residents, local organizations, volunteers, and community partners together to celebrate the people and groups who help make Bath a strong and welcoming community. The City of Bath invites area non-profits to host tables, share information about their work, and connect with community members. The event also includes live music and the presentation of the City’s annual community awards. The 2026 Community Involvement Day is scheduled for Saturday, October 3, from 9 a.m. to noon at Waterfront Park.
