Once again this summer, the city will welcome children with disabilities to let them have exclusive use of the many inclusive elements at Alfred’s Playground at the Field House.

The JumpStart playground is the only one of its kind in the province and has many unique features designed specifically for children with disabilities. While the inclusive elements of the playground will be reserved during this time, the other two wings of the playground will remain open to the general public.

Our Inclusive day’s this year will be at Alfred Jenkins Field House playground.

Inclusive dates will resume in 2025. New dates are July 8, 22 and August 12^th  from 9 am - 10:30 am
