OGRCC

What OGRCC does

OGRCC (Old Greenwich-Riverside Community Center) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit membership organization founded in 1943 and headquartered at the Cohen Eastern Greenwich Civic Center in Old Greenwich, Connecticut. The organization delivers community-based youth and adult recreational, athletic, educational, and social programs to Greenwich, CT residents. Membership has expanded from approximately 30 founding families in 1943 to over 1,800 members today. OGRCC employs 14 staff and operates with substantial volunteer involvement across coaching, event management, and program delivery.

The program portfolio spans youth sports (soccer, baseball, basketball, rugby, tennis, dance, field hockey, art, cooking, flag football), adult sports (soccer, tennis, rugby, dance), summer camps (Sandpipers Beach Camp founded 1973 plus sport-specific clinics), before/after-school childcare at North Mianus and ISD schools, and annual community events such as the Set Sail Regatta. Soccer is the largest vertical, comprising Recreational Soccer (650+ players), Thunder Travel (550+ players across 42 teams from U9-U16), and Greenwich United (U12-U19 premier). The underlying technology stack is minimal: CommunityPass handles online registration, SportsYou supports rugby communications, and there is no proprietary platform or app. Go-to-market is community-led via the website, email newsletter, social media, school partnerships, and annual events.

Revenue is generated through four streams: (1) annual family memberships ($150) and adult-only memberships ($50) required for program participation; (2) program registration fees including childcare ($3,400/year for 5-day afternoon care), summer camps ($200-$475/session), and sport-specific fees; (3) tax-deductible donations and corporate sponsorships; and (4) branded spirit wear sales. The membership year runs September through August. Scholarships are available for families with annual income at or below $75,000. The organization is led by Executive Director Jen Ludington and governed by a Board of Directors; there is no parent company, outside investor, or affiliate structure.
