Green Shack Programs

Main page content begins here

Get active and join us for games, sports, crafts, music, drama and special events this summer. The Green Shack program is a free drop-in program catered to children ages 6 to 12; however, all are welcome.

Green shacks are now closed for the season. Thanks for a great 2025 Green Shack summer! We look forward to seeing you in 2026.

Every summer, program leaders host games, challenges and activities that are sure to get kids active and having fun. A list of activities and special events will be posted on the side of the Green Shack each week. No registration is needed — all activities are free drop-in!

Green Shack Locations

Closed

Why are some locations closed?

Locations may be closed due to:

Staff shortage

Air quality can fluctuate from time to time across the city. Once staff go home for the day, they don't return the same day.
Inclement weather

Program Leaders

Program leaders are easily identified by their blue shirts and may be assisted by volunteer leaders in training. All leaders:

Have completed a security clearance process, are trained in first aid, and are certified specialists in fun!
Ensure participants play safely (Parents are responsible for their children at all times and must be available in the event of an emergency)

If there is a game or activity that piques your child's interest that you would like to have included in the programming, ask the program leader.

Note: Children under 6 years of age can still participate if they have a parent or guardian with them.
