Kawartha Lakes Community Guide
Fall/Winter 2016/2017
Welcome
Kawartha Lakes is naturally beautiful, and offers an exceptional lifestyle year-round. This Community Guide highlights the wide variety of recreational available throughout our municipality during the fall and winter months.
Our Parks, Recreation and Culture Division works hard to provide a wealth of opportunities for you and your family to stay active and get involved within the community. Through collaboration with a variety of not-for-profit organizations, clubs, our local college, private service providers and countless volunteers, they have developed a range of programing suitable for people of all ages, interests and abilities.
Recreational programming is an important part of what makes Kawartha Lakes such an enjoyable place to live.
Wishing you and active and healthy fall/ winter season.
