Embrace the Chill: Exciting Winter Activities Await with Morden Recreation Programs!

From winter activities to exercise sessions, Brooklynn Wolfe, the recreation coordinator for the City of Morden, is thrilled about the events available for locals to partake in during the upcoming months. Whether you aim to remain active, acquire new abilities, or just enjoy some leisure, Morden’s recreation programs provide an abundance of choices.

PD Day Camps for Children

Among the major offerings highlighted were the PD Day camps, a favored choice for youngsters aged 6 to 11. These camps allow kids to participate in crafts, games, and a variety of activities on days when school is not in session, providing a full-day program from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Registration can be completed online at Morden.ca/recreation, where parents can also discover additional information about other programs.

Red Cross Babysitting Courses

For individuals looking to enhance their babysitting abilities, Wolfe also introduced forthcoming Red Cross babysitting courses, ideal for teens seeking to make some extra money. The courses are anticipated to fill up fast, so Wolfe encouraged eager participants to register promptly.

Yoga and Fitness Sessions for All Ages

Yoga aficionados have numerous options to select from as well. Morden is presenting a range of yoga sessions, including those for youth, teens, and adults. Fitness activities are also being offered, such as cardio drumming, strength training, yoga fit, Pilates, and gentle flow yoga.

Outdoor Activities and Rentals

For those who prefer more engaging activities, Morden’s recreation facilities feature a variety of sports and outdoor gear rentals. The city’s lending library includes snowshoes and snow feet (mini skate skis), perfect for winter adventures. Moreover, broom ball sets are accessible for those in search of a fun, social winter pastime.

Ice Skating Opportunities

Wolfe also discussed the ice skating opportunities offered at Morden’s two arenas. There are various designated ice slots for different groups, including public skating, 55+ skate times, and special sessions for parents with young children. Regularly scheduled programs include morning skating, stick and puck time, and even home school skates on Wednesdays.

Enrollment and Availability

With all these options and beyond, it’s evident that Morden’s recreation programs are active this winter. Community members are encouraged to enroll in programs at the earliest opportunity, as many quickly reach capacity. For further information, visit Morden.ca/recreation or follow the social media pages of the City of Morden.

Wolfe noted that, as always, the community’s reaction to these programs has been overwhelmingly positive, with many winter offerings already reaching maximum enrollment. However, there is still time to register for upcoming events and to join waitlists for some of the most sought-after programs.

Residents of Morden can continue to enjoy a diverse range of recreational activities, all tailored to keep them active and engaged throughout the cold months.
