The Recreation Master Plan identifies community expectations and recreation needs. The goal of the plan is to ensure that the City’s recreation portfolio is responsive to current and future needs in a responsible, equitable and cost-effective manner. Recreation spaces allow Hamiltonians to be active and learn new skills, connect with one another, share their interests, exchange ideas, and experience diversity.

Community recreation centres (CRCs) are the foundation of Hamilton’s public recreation system. They are prominent community destinations that accommodate a wide variety of registered and drop-in City programming, casual use, rentals, community partnerships, and events that reflect the specific needs of area residents. In addition, these facilities play a vital role as a “third place” that provides a safe and inclusive space for people of all backgrounds.

Recreation centres offer some degree of aquatic, gymnasium, and community recreation programming for persons of all ages. Some are associated with arenas, larger auditorium spaces, and dedicated seniors’ space. Collectively, these facilities combine with more localized service options (such as community halls, schools, etc.) to create an extensive network of community-based facilities that offer a broad range of opportunities to residents and communities.

The Recreation Master Plan, identifies and prioritizes establishing three (3) new growth-related community recreation centres in the short-term (10yr) period. Community recreation centres in the following three communities have been funded to begin the concept design process.

  • Waterdown
  • Glanbrook
  • Fruitland-Winona

We are committed to creating spaces that foster health, wellness, and social connection. Planning for new facilities includes meaningful community engagement. Your voice matters. We are actively seeking feedback throughout the design and development process to ensure that new recreation facility investments align with community expectations and priorities.
