Individuals must apply through the Municipal Fee Assistance Program at Community Services, 362 Montreal St. If a household's after-tax income falls below the maximum net family income, each child in that household between the ages of 0-18 is eligible to receive financial assistance for recreation through SPARK (municipal-offered recreation programming) or PROkids (community-offered recreation programming) and may be eligible for a discounted transit pass. All adults over 18 may be eligible for SPARK as well as a discounted transit pass.

Drop in times: Mondays, 1-4:30 pm; Wednesdays and Fridays, 8:30 am to 12 pm

Once eligibility is confirmed through Community Services, the parent/guardian meets with the PROkids Coordinator who assists them in finding the right program for their child, identifies whether transportation or equipment assistance is needed, and discusses what amount the parent is able to contribute towards the total program cost. Each child choosing PROkids receives a maximum of $300 per calendar year with the specific amount depending on the program cost and the parent’s ability to contribute.
