Helping us get at it every single day!
The non-profit Kingston Gets Active, established 20 years ago is as active as ever thanks to partnerships that provide access to opportunities for all of us to be physically active. Board member Lara Paterson tells us their partners all have the same goal as them.

The ActivPass provides access to swimming, gym, skating, curling, and so much more. Lara notes reports reveal physical activity for students drop off at Grade 5. She adds that all sectors of a community improve with active residents of all ages.
