Active Kitchener is your complete guide to all recreation and leisure programs offered by the city and neighbourhood associations that begin in January 2024. The winter issue of Active Kitchener will be delivered to homes across the city this week, and a downloadable PDF will be available on our website, kitchener.ca/ActiveKitchener, on Nov. 30. Subscribe to the page for updates.

Be sure to review the programs that interest you and have the activity code(s) ready for registration on Dec. 5. Register online, in person (at a community centre, pool or city hall), or by calling your neighbourhood community centre or pool. You can preview the winter program offerings on ActiveNet, and add programs to a wish list in advance, and then add to your cart quickly and easily on registration day. If you need help searching for programs online, check out this helpful video. Also, be sure to check your child’s most recent swimming level before registering for swimming lessons.

Need financial support?

If program fees are preventing you, or a member of your family, from joining a city or neighbourhood association program, you could qualify for a yearly subsidy of $400 per person in Leisure Access fee assistance. Apply before registration at kitchener.ca/FeeAssistance.

Need support for a person with a disability?

For individuals with disabilities who may require extra support, the Inclusion Support and Personal Assistance for Leisure (PAL) activities program makes joining our programs possible and more enjoyable. For more information, or to apply in advance of a program, visit kitchener.ca/Inclusion.
