There's only so much time over the holidays to create memories with loved ones, and it's important to include recreational activities to balance out all of the rest and relaxation. Families can get out of the house to enjoy some free recreational activities this week.

From 1 to 5 p.m. on December 31, the City of Weyburn is sponsoring a free swim at the Weyburn Leisure Centre and a free skate at Crescent Point Place.

“Fletcher’s Funeral Chapel and Dignity Memorial sponsored a free swim on December 28th from 1:00 to 5:00,” said Aquatics Manager Tina Clay. “On January 2nd and January 4th, they’re also sponsoring a free swim.”

Parents of children who need a little extra exercise can look forward to taking advantage of the free swimming opportunities before school starts up again for 2019.
