The Active Living Strategy - Active Easy initiative aims to break down barriers and create opportunities for regular, casual, and fun physical activities every day. It encourages residents to stay active and social through various programs, such as the WalkFit Pass, which provides access to climate-controlled walking facilities. The initiative also includes neighbourhood programming and resources to promote creativity, cooperative play, and longer playtimes for children.
The goal of Active Easy is to break down barriers and create opportunities for regular, casual, fun activity and play every day.
The WalkFit Pass provides access to walking at arenas in Acton and Georgetown. Conditions are always right for a walk in our climate-controlled facilities! Enjoy the safety and convenience of the WalkFit pass. "Whatever the weather, we walk together!" Cost is only $37.29 per year, including HST. For more information, e-mail Sandy, our Active Living Programmer or visit our passes webpage.
The Town of Halton Hills receives funding support from the Ontario Ministry of Seniors and Accessibility.
Make this fall/winter the time you choose to stay active, stay social, and buy a WalkFit Pass! For under $40/year, you'll join dozens of like-minded 'walk-fitters' who use our climate-controlled facilities to stay healthy and safe year-round.
Our Neighbourhood Programming crew has been busy all winter sourcing heavy duty toy trucks and adding identifiable Town of Halton Hills stickers. Toys are intended to promote creativity, encourage cooperative play and make play times longer. Look for Toys in Parks from the end of May to September this year.
