We think families are fantastic! Our Active Families programs provides a variety of opportunities for different types of families. Some of the programs require registration and others are drop in.
Many of our family activities are special events, where families of all ages can spend time playing and being active together. Check out our recreation calendars and events calendar for activities you may enjoy.

National Family Week is celebrated in October each year with activities for families including a Family Fun Day.
National Child Day is celebrated on November 20. Every child has the right to reach their full potential. Celebrating National Child Day is about celebrating children as active participants in their own lives, meaningfully contributing to decision making. We wear blue to bring awareness to the rights of children around the world.
ParticipACTION has many resources to get active.
