Park & Play is back for another summer of fun

The beaches may still be out of service, but there’s plenty of fun to be had in Kelowna this summer.

Kelowna’s parks will soon be filled with bouncy castles, games and entertainment as part of the City’s Park & Play program.

From Monday, July 3rd until Friday, August 25th, the Park & Play crew will set up at local parks around the city from 5 p.m. until 8 p.m.

“This year we’ve selected 20 neighbourhood parks across the city to ensure that nobody has to travel too far to get in on the fun,” says Mariko Siggers, Manager, Community & Neighbourhood Services. “Residents are also going to see some ‘pop-up’ Park & Play activities at new park locations on Wednesday mornings this summer.”

Park & Play is completely free and is designed to get families to connect, get outside, explore new parks and stay active during the summer months.

With flooding having affected many families usual summer beach plans, the Park & Play program is more needed than ever this summer.

In partnership with Festivals Kelowna, ParksAlive! Will also be on site at a number of the Park & Play events with live musical entertainment.

“Park and Play has become more than just play,” says Siggers. “It’s become a summer tradition where communities have an opportunity to come together. Neighbours can catch up and kids can meet new friends and have some fun.”

Parents and guardians are reminded that they are responsible for the care and supervision of their children and are encouraged to use active transportation such as walking or biking to get to the events.
