There are many components needed to put on a great community event. Some of these may include:
Services for Recreation Providers and Event Organizers
The information and resources on this page will assist anyone who offers recreation programs or hosts events for the public.
We will continue to be adding to this page. Be sure to check back for updates!
Building Community Through Recreation Networks
Building Community Through Recreation Networks provide an opportunity for a variety of local organizations and people connect about recreation needs, develop capacity, and in some cases, develop new programming opportunities in their neighbourhoods.
Neighbourhood events gather together several Recreation Program providers to share program details and explore opportunities to develop and deliver programs to meet the needs of a community.
If your group or organization is involved in recreation programming, join a Recreation Network in your area! Together recreation can flourish in our communities.
Contact Building Community Through Recreation for more information or to be added to the invite list.
Curriculum
Free curriculum templates which can be used or adapted to offer recreation in your neighbourhood.
