This Family Day spend some time together being active right here in our community. I’m happy to share that this year, I’m sponsoring free recreation programs in Ward 3 in partnership with the City of Hamilton’s Recreation Department for you to spend time with those you define as family.

In response to growing interest in more inclusive and accessible holiday programming (beyond just open skates), we’re expanding the kinds of activities families can enjoy together at no cost!

Here’s what’s happening in Ward 3 over the Family Day weekend:

Bernie Morelli Recreation Centre
Open Swim on Saturday, February 14, 2026 from 1:15pm – 2:15pm

Bernie Morelli Recreation Centre
Open Gym (Ages 17 and under with an adult) on Saturday, February 14, 2026 from 2pm – 3pm

Norman Pinky Lewis Recreation Centre
Open Swim on Saturday, February 14, 2026 from 4pm – 5:30pm

These free drop-in programs are a great way for families, kids, and caregivers to move, play, and spend quality time together over the holiday weekend. I hope to see many of you out enjoying these spaces and making the most of Family Day right here in #OurWard3.
