MESSAGE FROM Mayor Brenda Locke As the Mayor of the vibrant City of Surrey, I am thrilled to present the 2024 Summer Recreation Guide. Summer is a time for relaxation, exploration, and rejuvenation, and our City has a plethora of exciting activities and programs for our residents. Whether you’re looking to stay active, connect with nature, or simply unwind and have fun, there is something for everyone to enjoy in this Guide. As our City grows, we are committed to prioritizing inclusive programs and accessible public facilities and programs for all residents. Council is committed to investing in new amenities for our rapidly growing community, and our new Accessibility Action Plan aims to remove barriers and enhance accessibility citywide, ensuring everyone can enjoy our facilities regardless of age or ability. By investing in new infrastructure and prioritizing inclusive programs, we are creating a more welcoming and accessible environment for all members of our community. Our successful Our City beautification campaign is back for its second year, aiming to inspire and empower citizens to enhance Surrey as a great place to live, work, and play. Visit surrey.ca/ourcity to get involved and discover how the City can support your community project. Let this summer be a time of renewal, growth, and connection as we celebrate the beauty and vitality of Surrey. I invite you to engage in new experiences, make lasting memories with friends and family, and embrace the spirit of community that defines our city. Let us come together to create a stronger, more connected Surrey. I wish you all a safe, enjoyable, and fulfilling summer season ahead.
