Civic, Recreation, and Culture Facilities

All decisions on opening will be considered in the context of employee health and safety, WorkSafeBC regulations, community focus and public confidence, and financial impact/viability. While health and safety are the primary focus, it is important to note that as programs and services are assessed for reopening, non-essential operations and programs that have been reduced may not be resumed if they are not financially viable. We will do our best to provide clear information, as available, so check back regularly for updates. Please understand that calling or emailing Parks and Recreation will not result in additional information.
