For those with a fixed income, there are a number of local and regional programs available to help all Rupertites access recreation facilities and sport in our community.
Looking for support? You might qualify for Prince Rupert's Recreation Access Program, which allows families and individuals to participate in recreation activities at a discounted rate.
In addition the local chapter of KidSport is located at our Recreation Complex. KidSport provides grants to help cover the costs of registration fees so that ALL kids aged 18 and under can play a season of sport.
