Griffin Harrington is the co-founder and CEO of RecRe. RecRe started as a simple idea that Griffin had to make recreational items like basketballs and tennis rackets available in public parks, just like bikes and scooter sharing programs. That original idea has evolved into an automated rental solution that’s expanding access to equipment and fitness gear in recreational spaces across the country.
