Looking for something fun to do this summer?
Check out the Town of Orangeville’s new Neighbourhood Block Box, a mobile programming trailer.
Programs will be offered by the Recreation & Events division and the Orangeville Public Library. A variety of activities will be planned for everyone – all ages, all abilities, all interests.
As part of the Town of Orangeville’s Recreation & Parks Master Plan recommendations to develop programs at outdoor locations for all ages, and the suitability of parks for hosting outdoor programs, the Block Box is the perfect opportunity for outdoor programs.
Ray Osmond, General Manager of Community Services and Acting CAO says the Town is focused on offering programs for everyone in the community.
“COVID certainly has hindered opportunities for people to get involved and the Town recognizes the need for people to stay socially connected and active. The Block Box provides programming at no cost to residents in key parks across the community. It’s a great way to get out, get active and meet your neighbours and our Community Services team this summer.”
Find the The Block Box at the following location at times:
Harvey Curry Park, July 18th to the 30th & August 29th to September 2nd
Rebecca Hills Park, August 2nd-13th
Programs will include stories with the Library on Tuesdays at 11 a.m. for French/English story time and Saturdays at 10:30 a.m. for family story time.
Recreation Neighbourhood Program Leaders will plan a variety of sports, games, crafts, movies and a whole lot of fun throughout the week.
