You will have to bring your own equipment as a precaution and some restrictions will be in place following Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit guidelines.
Time blocks for gym programs like badminton, pickleball, volleyball and basketball will also be available. The City says health and safety precautions are in place for each activity to ensure capacity limits and physical distancing.
Participants must pre-book online at play.barrie.ca before attending and must follow all stated health and safety protocols while using recreation facilities.
All activities currently offered at recreation centres are included in fitness memberships (recPASS).
Memberships are available for purchase at Allandale Recreation Centre, Holly Community Centre and East Bayfield Community Centre. Regular fees apply for single visits.
Coming soon, the City will also begin piloting virtual programming (e.g. fitness classes).
More details on this will be shared by the City soon.
