We believe, recreation builds strong families and healthy communities.
• Families that play together, stay together
• Recreation provides safe developmental opportunities for children
• Recreation, sports and arts/culture produce leaders who serve their communities in many ways
• Recreation, sports and arts/culture build social skills and stimulate participation in community life
• Recreation is often the catalyst that builds strong, self-sufficient communities (i.e. sport groups, arts guilds)
• Art/culture helps people understand their neighbours, their history and their environment
• Recreation and arts/culture build pride in a community
