Recreation facilities reopen as Ontario enters Step 3 of Province’s Roadmap to Reopen
Back to SearchThe Kiwanis Aquatics Centre, museum, community centres, older adult centres and other recreational amenities will reopen to the public this week as Ontario enters Step 3 of its Roadmap to Reopen.
With a focus on balancing public health, community impact and feasibility more City of St. Catharines facilities will reopen with expanded program offerings.
