The Block Box is on a roll for another season of summer fun
The Orangeville Recreation Neighbourhood Block Box is back for its fifth season of summer fun.
Chalked full of hands-on games and activities, the colourful trailer will make its debut for the 2026 season on Canada Day at the Alder Recreation Centre from 12 to 5 p.m. From there, it will hit the road, travelling to parks across Town all summer, bringing arts and crafts, sports equipment, special events and other fun activities for kids and families to enjoy.
“Summer is a time for making memories,” said Sharon Doherty-Gaudin, manager, Recreation and Events. “What better, cost-free way to do that than getting outside, enjoying our local parks and seeing everything the Block Box has to offer?”
