The City of Kelowna Fall is a time of change; the autumnal sun is a welcomed reprieve from the heat of summer, days become shorter, and nature responds with colourful displays of red, orange and yellow. Embrace the season and have fun outdoors discovering a new park or hiking trail in our beautiful city. It’s also a great time to rediscover an old hobby or learn a new skill and our Fall 2023 Activity Guide is here to help!

The following pages are filled with indoor and outdoor programs and activities for all ages and abilities. From sports leagues, art classes, swim lessons and after school programs for kids, we hope you’ll be inspired this fall to try something new and have fun while doing it!

Active for Life Sport and physical activity play an important role in a child’s healthy growth, development and maturation. Physical activity leads to healthy lifestyle habits, increased social skills, improved mental and cognitive skills and educational success. The City of Kelowna offers programs that support the Canadian Sport for Life model of physical literacy.

Canadian Sport for Life aligned programs will be found in the Children’s 6 & Under and 6 & Up sections. Look for the symbols: Active Start (0Y-6Y) - At this age, physical activity should always be fun and part of daily life. Active play in a safe environment is the best way to keep children physically and socially active.

FUNdamentals (6Y-9Y boys, 6Y-8Y girls) - Skill development at this age is best achieved through a combination of unstructured play in a safe and challenging environment.

Learning to Train (9Y-12Y boys, 8Y-11Y girls) This is a period of accelerated learning of coordination and fine motor skills. It is a time to develop all fundamental movement skills and learn overall sport skills.

There are no prerequisites for any of the programs.

Children can start at any stage.

Cultural Update Fall 2023

2020-2025 Cultural Plan Highlight VITALITY: LEARN FROM OUR PAST STRATEGY 5.3: ESTABLISH A FRAMEWORK FOR INCLUDING THE VOICE OF INDIGENOUS ARTISTS AND CULTURAL LEADERS IN THE CREATIVE SECTOR. Initiatives that support this strategy involve Indigenous artist and cultural leader representation at all levels and will leverage the value that these perspectives bring to the creative sector. This can be achieved by including Indigenous representation on boards and committees, adopting the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples as a reconciliation framework, taking part in conversations and sharing stories.

We all have a role to play, what’s yours? Learn more at kelowna.ca/culture.
