Recreation & Culture

Things will look a lot different at Brennan Park Recreation Centre as a new phase of construction is now underway. This is the second of several phases of construction planned over the next two years to retrofit the building. Signage has been installed to help guide patrons through the facility and customer service staff are at their stations to help smooth your way. We look forward to sharing updates as work progresses!

Important Updates

NOTICE OF PLANNED CLOSURE: BRENNAN PARK RECREATION CENTRE

 

The Facilities Department would like to inform the public of a planned temporary closure of Brennan Park Recreation Centre on Tuesday, August 5, due to ongoing construction work.

 

Work to the lobby’s flooring will take place over the course of the day on Tuesday and requires using products that produce strong odours. In the interest of the public’s health and comfort, a full closure will be required.

 

The facility will open to the public on Wednesday, August 6.

 

Please note there will be no impacts to summer camps on Tuesday, as all camps will take place outside.

 

All swimming lessons on Tuesday have been cancelled. Customers have been contacted and will receive a full refund for the day. Swimming lessons will resume as normal on Wednesday, August 6.

 

It is anticipated that work related to the renovation may require further future closures to ensure the health and safety of staff and customers. Staff will work towards ensuring any further closures will limit impacts on customers as much as possible and communicate any potential changes with the public in advance.  

 

Thank you for your patience and understanding while this work is being completed.

Construction at Brennan Park Recreation Centre has moved to a new stage today, Wednesday June 16. 

Due to this construction, the arena and arena lobby will be closed, and there will be no access to the washrooms and water fountain in this area. 

During this period, there will be two accessible washroom trailers on site, one by the gymnasium, and the other outside the arena.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue this work on upgrading the Brennan Park rec center.

Starting on Monday, January 13, access to the auditorium from the east (Arena) entrance lobby will be restricted as phase two of construction progresses. Temporary accessible and non-accessible washrooms will be available along the south wall outside the auditorium.

We kindly ask patrons to use the south entrance to access the auditorium until further notice. Wayfinding signage will be in place to assist you. Thank you for patience and understanding as we work to improve the space!

The Fall Program Guide will be published online on Tuesday, August 19, with registration opening on Tuesday, August 26.

How Recreation Supports Your Child

  • Engaging the participant in a conversation.

  • Asking open ended question to discover how they are feeling.

  • Determining why they are feeling the way they are.

  • Brainstorming solutions together.

  • Incorporating their ideas. 

  • Creating a plan.

You know your child best. Our team may connect with you to discuss your child’s experience when:

·         We would like information on how to best support your child’s specific needs

·         Your child has had repeated challenging moments

·         Disrespectful behavior has affected the experience of others

·         Safety has become a concern

·         Inappropriate language has been directed at others

Please note:
Staff are unable to provide personal care such assistance with toileting, administering medication or changing.

In the event the leadership team feels a participant is not able to be successful after implementing support strategies, they may be removed from the programs.

Examples include:

  • not following camp rules and guidelines.
  • running away from the group.
  • inappropriate language.
  • physical violence.
  • being disrespectful of others.
