Skate Program
This supervised skate program is open to all ages and operates during the coldest months (usually December to early March). Be sure to join us this winter once the season gets under way. Once the temperatures are cold enough to maintain ice and we have enough snow the skate program hours will be announced. Please watch our Facebook Pages for details.
We have over 100 pairs of loaner skates for this program. It’s a great way to stay active throughout the winter.

All Garden plots are first come first serve.... if you are interested in a garden plot or tending the gardens we will have a meet and greet in April when registration and plots will be assigned.
There are plots available in all four gardens for area residents to grow their own vegetables, flowers or you can just tend flowers, pull weeds, pick litter or just sit back and relax and read a book in our neighborhood green spaces. These will be assigned to people who can help with:
-
General repairs ie: fence & garden bed repairs, painting fences, garden beds, picnic tables, etc.
-
Garden bed preparation for planting ie: help spread soil, till, weed, etc.
-
General maintenance ie: grass cutting, tree & bush pruning, weeding, etc.
-
Gardeners that have assigned garden plots are responsible to water their plot
The garden plots will be assigned to people who attend the Community Garden Meet and Greet in April and registered for a garden plot. Note* with the exception of our garden fairies.
