Drop-in at Recreation Facilities

Pre-registration No Longer Required


Did you hear? We’ve reintroduced drop-in public swimming, skating, weight room access and gymnasium sports at Poirier Sport & Leisure Complex, City Centre Aquatic Complex and Eagle Ridge and Spani Outdoor Pools.
 
Patrons should note, however, that both pools and arenas have limited capacities so visitors may want to call ahead.
