Gateways Recreation programs: fun, friendship and wellbeing
Recreation Activity Officer, Penny, recently went on Bay Spotlight to talk about Gateways recreation programs. If you missed the interview, here are the key highlights!
Our recreation programs offer fun, engaging, and inclusive activities for children, youth, and adults with disabilities. With a range of options available, including outdoor adventures, creative workshops, and social events with something for everyone! These programs also offer health and wellness benefits.
Why join a Gateways Recreation Program?
1. Physical health benefits: Many of our programs incorporate movement, whether it’s swimming, walking, or lifting weights, helping you to improve your fitness and overall wellbeing.
2. Mental health benefits: Engaging in activities you love can reduce stress, boost confidence, and create a sense of achievement. Creative outlets like art, music, and gardening help to provide an opportunity to relax and tune into your emotions.
3. Social health benefits: Building friendships and feeling a sense of belonging is essential for happiness. Our programs create safe, inclusive spaces where you can connect, thrive and make new friends!
