$77,000 to Help Kids Stay Active and Healthy in North Bay

Province investing in local after school programs for children and youth

  The Ontario government is investing $77,088 through Ontario’s After School Program to support the City of North Bay to deliver active recreation programming for the 2024-25 year.

 “Our government is proud to support opportunities through the After School Program in North Bay to improving the health and well-being of children and youth while encouraging their development of leadership skills through safe and supervised sport and recreation activities,” said MPP Vic Fedeli.

 “Thank you to MPP Fedeli and the Ontario Government for their continued funding and support,” said Mayor Peter Chirico. “This investment allows us to keep running after-school programs at three locations across North Bay, offering a safe and supportive environment for up to 90 children, ages 7 to 12, to stay active, enjoy nutritious snacks, explore their creativity through arts, and get help with their homework.”

 Families interested in Ontario’s After School Program can contact an ASP delivery partner for more information about eligibility requirements and services that are offered by their program.
