Recreation Programs put on by Recreation Department from the Municipality of the county of Richmond.
Reduced Program Fees: The Department of Community Development and Recreation. gratefully acknowledges the support of the Province of Nova Scotia. We are proud to partner with the Department of Communities, Culture, Tourism and Heritage to develop and promote our cultural and recreational resources for the benefit of all Nova Scotians. With their valued support, registration fees for selected on-ice programming in Fall 2025 have been reduced by half. Children enrolled in Youth Recreation Hockey and Learn to Skate programs will directly benefit from this reduction, making these opportunities more accessible for families in our community.
