They provide places for neighbours to gather, relax, and enjoy physical, social, cultural and artistic activities together – building healthy community ties. It’s a legacy worth building on. 2 Recreation Facility Master Plan Recreation Facility Master Plan: A crucial roadmap Thanks to a strong tradition of investment, Edmonton is served by a broad range of public recreation, leisure and cultural facilities. Hockey rinks, pools, gymnasia, golf courses, heritage spots, recreation centres and other City of Edmonton facilities give us places to gather, relax, build healthy bodies and enjoy leisure pursuits. Key to the active and interactive living that creates healthy people and vibrant neighbourhoods, these facilities also help attract national and international events, polishing our reputation as a host city. The City of Edmonton Recreation Facility Master Plan lays out a roadmap for ensuring that future citizens enjoy these same benefits. Approved by City Council on August 31, 2004, the plan provides a focused and strategic vision for meeting public recreation, leisure and cultural facility needs until 2015.

Recreation Facility Master Plan 3 What recreation facilities do we have now? Edmonton has numerous public ice pads, aquatic facilities, older adult centres, fitness centres and golf courses. Many of those facilities attract clients from specific areas of the city, although each one is open to all citizens. In addition, the City runs specialty facilities: Fort Edmonton Park, Valley Zoo, John Janzen Nature Centre, Muttart Conservatory, John Walter Museum, Commonwealth Stadium, the City of Edmonton Archives and the City Arts Centre. Other specialty facilities are operated through various partnership arrangements with the City: Argyll Velodrome, curling rinks, indoor soccer centres, Kinsmen Pitch and Putt, Mill Woods Golf Course, Telus World of Science (formerly Odyssium), ski clubs, and the Whitemud Equine Centre.

  • Community and Recreation Facilities
    Branch — Community and Recreation Facilities Introduction The Community and Recreation Facilities Branch manages and animates over 60 community facilities, operates and programs river valley parks and trails, and supports a wide range of community organizations to deliver important festivals and events throughout the City. Working with the community, the Branch supports City Council’s goal to improve Edmonton’s livability. Community facilities are managed as vibrant, active places where citizens feel welcomed, valued, and appreciated and are designed to promote personal growth and healthy lifestyles. The diverse range of facilities, outdoor spaces, programs and events attract local residents and visitors and are an essential part of the fabric of Edmonton. A core outcome of the Branch is to create vibrant places that enhance liveability and vibrancy of the City by providing places and opportunities for all Edmontonians to gather, connect, recreate and celebrate. Facilities and River Valley parks serve as community hubs, bringing people together in welcoming and exciting settings where they can build relationships, meet friends, have fun, and be healthy and active. In recent years, the City of Edmonton has provided significant investment into new and expanded community facilities. This investment has been transformational. Many facilities have seen major upgrades and expansions, including the Edmonton Valley Zoo (Arctic Shores and The Wander), the John Janzen Nature Centre, four arenas, and four leisure centres. Major new facilities have opened and are being enjoyed by Edmontonians including the Terwillegar Community Recreation Centre, Commonwealth Stadium and Commonwealth Community Recreation Centre, Fred Broadstock and Queen Elizabeth outdoor pools and St. Francis Xavier Sport Centre.

    CANADA Capital City - Ottawa Tree - Maple tree, officially recognized as a national emblem in 1996. Animal - Beaver, officially recognized as an emblem of Canada in 1975 Motto - “From sea to sea” The current flag was adopted February 15, 1965. The name “Ottawa” is aboriginal in origin but there are varying explanations of exactly where it came from. It is generally thought to be the Anglicized form of the name of an Aboriginal people living west of Ottawa, variously referred to as Outauac, Outaouais, or Outaouit. The Ottawa people were great traders and the river may have gotten its name from the fact that it was the river used by the Ottawa people, or perhaps the river leading to the nation of the Ottawa. Ottawa, Canada's Capital, sits on the border of the province of Ontario in central Canada. It was made capital of the British colonial Province of Canada in 1857 and was reaffirmed as the national capital at Confederation in 1867. In the 20th century, a much larger Capital Region was created to serve as a frame for Canada's Capital. Since 1969, Ottawa and Gatineau (two cities that face each other across the broad Ottawa River) and the surrounding urban and rural communities have been formally recognized as Canada's "capital area." In the 1840s and 1850s, the location of the capital had been a matter of dispute. It had moved between Kingston, Montréal, Toronto and Québec City, at great expense and with great disruption. The rivals could not agree on a permanent capital, so the matter was deferred to the young Queen Victoria.
