Eat Right Ontario says that being active as a family strengthens not only everyone's heart, lungs, bones and muscles, but also your relationships with one another. Families who play together talk, laugh, sing and enjoy. They develop mutual interests, cheer each other on and develop a teamwork mentality. On Monday, February 19, it is Family Day in Ontario, and we invite you to join us at the Vollmer Culture and Recreation Complex for free family activities!
Power Off and Play with free 45-minute swims taking place at the beginning of each hour from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. The Healthy Kids Community Challenge Windsor-Essex hosts our free swims. Windsor-Essex is one of the 45 communities across Ontario that was awarded a provincial grant to promote healthy eating, physical activity and healthy lifestyle choices for children between the ages of 0 and 12. There will be prizes and giveaways!
