Fun activities for Family Day coming to Orangeville

February 9, 2023   ·   0 Comments

Family Day is coming up fast, and there’s plenty of fun activities for you and your family to enjoy while spending time together in Orangeville.

“We are so fortunate in Orangeville to be surrounded by many incredible spaces to enjoy with our families,” said Mayor Lisa Post. “From Ontario Parks and Island Lake right out of our doorstep, to free recreation activities at our arenas, the local museum, many incredible restaurants and several other amenities, you don’t have to travel far to create great family experiences.”

This year, the Orangeville Public Library and Orangeville Recreation have teamed up to provide the community with lots to see and do as they spend that special time together. 

Leading up to Family Day, plan a great outing with your family by borrowing a pass to Ontario Parks, Credit Valley Conservation, or the Museum of Dufferin with your library card. All passes cover admission and parking. 

On Family Day, make your way to Alder Recreation Centre between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. to enjoy a variety of activities for all ages, including crafts for kids, a chance to interact with characters from Paw Patrol, and professional photo booth.

B Social Concessions will be open, with food and drinks available for purchase.

The Alder Library will also be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. for families to come and ignite their imaginations with books, the Lego table, and more. 

Free skating for families will also be offered in both rinks at Alder throughout the day. Wristbands are required to enter and will be provided 30 minutes prior to the skate time. There is no pre-registration for skating times. 

At the red rink, skating times are 11 to 11:50 a.m., 12 to 12:50 p.m., 1 to 1:50 p.m. and 2 to 2:50 p.m.

The green rink will be available for the public to skate on from 11:30 a.m. to 12:20 p.m., 12:30 to 1:20 p.m. and 1:30 to 2:20 p.m.

While out and about on Family Day, the Town of Orangeville is encouraging residents to share photos of their family activity on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter and tag the town’s page.
