Active Living Charter

Physical activity, sport, recreation, and play can occur anywhere and at any time!

The Township of South Glengarry has adopted an Active Living Charter for its residents. This Charter was developed in partnership with the Eastern Ontario Health Unit.

The development of a more physically active community is seen by the Township of South Glengarry as a favourable component to increase the quality of life of its residents. The Township also believes that partaking in physical activity is a key element to an individual's physical and mental health and well-being.

The Township of South Glengarry supports physically activity through:

• Equipment such as playground structures and sports fields
• Community recreation programming that encourages healthy active lifestyles in recreation centres, community schools, and parks and open spaces
• Education and awareness to motivate the residents of the Township to be active
• Working together with people and organizations to promote South Glengarry as an active community
