 Planning an event?  Where to do it?

The Region of Queens Municipality owns and maintains many parks, playgrounds and open spaces, as well as Beach Meadows Beach … all are available to use free of charge, simply submit a Request for Facility Use form,  which can be found at http://www.regionofqueens.com/index.asp?id=100

For indoor events in the late Spring/Summer months, the Queens Memorial Arena is a large, dry indoor space well suited to that purpose.  The hourly rental in the Summer is $50 + HST, or $500 + HST /full day for non-profit groups.

The Recreation Dept. can also help non-profit groups to promote their events through the banner loan program.  Call us to borrow a banner, approx. 12 feet long x 4 feet high, for a deposit of $75 for the 2-line, or $150 for the 3-line banner (18 characters/line).

There is also a 20’ x 20’ canopy tent available to loan to non-profit groups for events for a $150 deposit.

Community groups wanting to use the banner or tent may book them by calling the Recreation Dept., and are responsible for picking them up and setting them up themselves, as well as for applying for any permits or insurance required based on the intended usage.

For information about facility use, or banner or tent loans, or other assistance available for volunteers, contact the Recreation Dept. at 354-5741.

 The Recreation Department is now on Facebook!

The Recreation Department has taken the plunge into social media! We’ve created a Group Page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=184433707564&ref=ts.

Both cost effective and used across a wide demographic, social media is quickly becoming an extremely useful tool in business. This page will enable us to deliver frequent messages, share links and photos and allow for reciprocal, community inclusive communication. We also anticipate that we will be able to reach an audience that may not be available through more traditional forms of communication like newspapers and radio (i.e. youth). Updates will feature both Recreation and Community programs, activities and events available to residents of Queens.

If you use Facebook, please take a moment to visit the page and join the group. We also ask that you invite your friends to join as well!
