2022 Recreation Parks & Facilities Overview

2022 Recreation Parks & Facilities Overview

The Town of Deep River is home to an extensive network of indoor and outdoor recreational parks and facilities, offered through both the private and public sector.  Over many decades, the Town of Deep River, along with partnering community groups, has invested in recreation and culture throughout the Town to evolve, expand and improve recreational parks, facilities and services.  However, recent public engagement suggests that there is a demand for future expansion and a need for investment to further evolve recreation and culture as well as maintain, renovate, or redevelop current recreational parks and facilities throughout the Town.   

The focus of this document is to provide an overview of Recreational Parks and Facilities owned and operated by the Town of Deep River, and the initial community consultation which has resulted in a number of recommended possible actions.  Staff will continue to engage the community to develop a Recreation and Culture Plan for potential adoption by Council. This plan could be used to assist staff and Council with future budgetary processes.

It should be noted that the survey and this overview are primarily focused on Town-owned “recreation”.  The strategy going forward will be to broaden the scope to include a focus on recreation and culture within the community while ensuring engagement with and representation of community recreation and culture facilities, events and programming that are not Town-owned or operated.
