Kingston Neighbourhood Parks Program

The Neighbourhood Parks Program is offered by the City of Kingston and operated by the YMCA of Eastern Ontario. It is a free, drop-in program that provides children aged six to 12 with recreational activities at five local parks. It is offered from Mondays to Fridays, beginning on July 2 and running to August 23, with the exception of the Civic Holiday on Monday, August 5.

There will be a rotating schedule as follows.

Recreational programming may include active games, crafts, circle games or use of equipment/supplies.
