KENILWORTH – The Township of Wellington North is inviting residents, community organizations, user groups, businesses, and visitors to help shape the future of recreation in Wellington North through a newly launched Recreation Master Plan community survey.
The survey is part of the Township's update to its Recreation Master Plan, a long-term guiding document that helps shape decisions about recreation programs, parks, facilities, services, and community needs. The Township has retained Monteith Brown Planning Consultants to assist with the Recreation Master Plan update.
The project will help ensure recreation services continue to meet evolving community needs while responding to demographic changes, growth, and emerging recreation trends. The updated plan will establish priorities and actions for the next 10 years and will be developed alongside the Township's Facilities Master Plan.
Community input will help identify:
- Recreation programs and services residents would like to see in the future.
- Opportunities to improve access to recreation and increase participation.
- Potential enhancements to parks, recreation facilities, and public spaces.
- Community priorities for recreation investment and service delivery.
The Recreation Master Plan survey is now open and will remain available until November 22, 2026. Residents can complete the survey online at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/WNrecMP
In addition to the survey, residents will also have opportunities to participate in drop-in public engagement sessions on the following dates:
- Sunday, November 15 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Arthur and Area Community Centre.
- Saturday, November 21 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Mount Forest and District Sports Complex.
