Getting Started; Newly Active
Getting started into a regular physical activity commitment may be a very challenging undertaking for many people. There are several programs in the community that welcome people just getting started and provide a motivational and encouraging environment to supporting your healthy lifestyle. Here you will learn about what programs are available.
Leisure Guides
From Beginner programs to high performance programs, Campbell River’s Parks, Recreation and Culture and the Strathcona Regional District have a wide variety of great programs
Active Workplace
Active Campbell River is supporting a local Active Workplace initiative for businesses in the area. The workplace is where most adults spend over half their waking hours, and we feel it’s important to engage people at work and to provide a supportive active work environment rather than adding to already busy schedules.
Pedometer Programs
According to the latest IPSOS Reid Poll; walking is the favourite physical activity for people living in Campbell River. There have been many recent initiatives in the community that support walking and walking environments. Active Campbell River recently distributed 1200 pedometers to community members throughout the city.
