TWO WAYS TO SEARCH Based on customer feedback, we’ve added an additional way to search for activities online. Whether you want to search broadly or take a more focused approach, you will continue to register the way you do now for our same high-quality programs. Use Chrome for the best experience when searching using either method. Broad Search: Not sure what you’re looking for? Best for customers who wish to see all available activities first and then make selections. Can filter by keyword, course code or date range. Focused Search: Answer a few quick questions and display results based on selections. Best for customers who know exactly what they’re looking for or those who want to be guided to a program. Search frequently for the same activities? Save time by creating personalized searches for each family member. Focused searches will load faster with less criteria chosen. If selecting a large number of activities, choose the broad search for faster results. NEED HELP?

SAY IT AIN’T SNOW! With the holiday season ending, it’s officially wintertime in Surrey! As we turn the page on a new year–packing up decorations, grazing leftovers and dusting off alarm clocks for our first day back at work–it’s common to feel a little blue these days. Scarce sunlight and chilly temperatures have a way of making hibernation seem like a novel idea! With that said, it’s important to remember that a new year represents new beginnings. With countless events and activities to explore this season, the City of Surrey can help you make the most out of 2023 by embracing new experiences and building a sense of community. The magic of the holiday season may have come and passed, but this winter, the festive spirit lives on in Surrey! CHECK OUT Cool Activities ACROSS THE CITY THIS WINTER

Since reopening last September, locals can once again enjoy drop-in swimming, aquafit classes, performance training and more. Among the pool’s several amenities, the two dry heat saunas will undoubtedly provide reprieve for brave participants of this year’s Polar Bear Swim!

Escape the city and quiet your mind while weaving your way through looping nature trails. Home to birds and other wildlife, the park’s towering sequoia, redwood and fir trees–along with a picturesque pond–enhance crisp morning walks and peaceful afternoon strolls. With a little luck, you might just be fortunate enough to witness the park transform into a winter wonderland following fresh snowfall!
